Yesterday I heard the rain
Whispering your name
Asking where you'd gone
It fell softly from the clouds
On the silent crowds
As I wandered on
Out of doorways
Black umbrellas came to pursue me
Faceless people as they passed
Were looking through me, no one knew me
Yesterday I shut my eyes
Face-up to the skies
Shrinkin' in the rain
But your image still was there
Floating in the air
Brighter than a flame
Yesterday I saw a city
Full of shadows without pity
And I heard the steady rain
Whispering your name, whispering your name
Yesterday I saw a city
Full of shadows without pity
And I heard the steady rain
Whispering your name, whispering your name, whispering your name
Whispering your name
Asking where you'd gone
It fell softly from the clouds
On the silent crowds
As I wandered on
Out of doorways
Black umbrellas came to pursue me
Faceless people as they passed
Were looking through me, no one knew me
Yesterday I shut my eyes
Face-up to the skies
Shrinkin' in the rain
But your image still was there
Floating in the air
Brighter than a flame
Yesterday I saw a city
Full of shadows without pity
And I heard the steady rain
Whispering your name, whispering your name
Yesterday I saw a city
Full of shadows without pity
And I heard the steady rain
Whispering your name, whispering your name, whispering your name
