Composer: Vinnie Bell

I saw you and him
Walking in the rain
You were holding hands
And I’ll never be the same

Tossin’ and turning, another sleepless night
The rain crashes against my window pane
Jumped into my car, didn’t drive too far
That moment I knew I would never be the same

‘Cause I saw you and him
Walking in the rain
You were holding hands
And I’ll never be the same

I saw you and him
Walking in the rain
You were holding hands
And I’ll never be the same

Now here you are begging to me
To give our love another try
Girl, I love you and I always will
But darling, right now I got to say, “Goodbye”

I saw you and him
Walking in the rain
You were holding hands
And I’ll never be the same

I saw you and him
Walking in the rain
You were holding hands
And I’ll never be the same

Hey, hey, baby, how you doin’
Come on in here
Got some hot chocolate on the stove waitin’ for you
Listen, first things first
Let me hang up that coat
Yeah, how was your day today
Did you miss me
Oh, you did, yeah, I missed you too
I missed you so much I followed you today
That’s right, now close your mouth ‘cause you cold busted
That’s right, now sit down here, sit down here
I’m so upset with you I don’t know what to do
My first impulse was to run on you and do a Rambo
I’m about to jammie flat blast both of you
I didn’t want to mess up this $3,700 lynx coat
So instead I chill, that’s right, chill
And I went to the bank, took out every dime
And I went and cancelled all those credit cards, yeah
All your charge cards accounts, yeah
I stuck you up with every piece of jewelry I bought you, yeah, that’s right
Everything, everything
No, don’t go, don’t go lookin’ in that closet
‘Cause you ain’t got nothin’ in there
Everything you came here with is packed up and waitin’ for you in the guest room
That’s right
What was you thinkin’ about, huh
What were you tryin’ to prove, huh
You’s with the Juice
Girl, I gave you silk suit, Gucci handbags, blue diamonds
I gave you things you couldn’t even pronounce
Now I can’t give you nothin’ but advice
‘Cause you’re still young
That’s right, you’re still young
I hope you learn a valuable lesson from all this, you know
You’re gonna find somebody like me one of these days
Until then, you know what you gotta do
You gotta get on outta here with alley cat
Cold wind, hush puppy wearin’ crumb cake I saw you with
‘Cause you dismissed
That’s right
Silly rabbit, Trix are made for kids, don’t you know that
You without me, like Corn Flake without the milk
It’s my world, you just a squirrel tryin’ to get a nut
Now get on outta here with that
Don’t touch that coat
