A Little Rain (A Song for Pete) Lyrics

I was getting desperate, yes I was, yes I was
A couple bad days, had turned into months, into months
I stumbled in St. Peter's Cathedral, there I was
I never tried religion, but man, I'll try anything once
You were smiling, wearing a t-shirt
From a rally in 1992
CHORUS
When the rain, starts coming down
A little rain, it ain't bringing me down
When the rain, starts coming down
A little rain, it ain't bringing me down
Pete said, let's meet on the Monday
Get some sleep, so you can clear your head
The morning sun had the sidewalk scorching
So you knew the clouds would be rolling in at 5 or 6, at 5 or 6 pm

At the diner, I started crying
Pete said, "you gotta friend in me"
CHORUS
Now the chapters of your life
Might take you by surprise
And the last plot twist
You never saw it coming
Don't rush, just take your time
And know I'm by your side
And when you're good
Hit the ground running
CHORUS
Hung up on everything that I'm not
Pete said, "look around at everything that we've got"
