Christchurch Woman

I was doing alright
Laying in and laying low
I was wasting my night
Calling in my favorite songs
On the local radio
I was standing in window
Staring down into the street
Just when the lightning flashed
And the thunder rolled
The telephone ringed

I am waiting for Christchurch woman in the rain
Yeah, the rain keep coming
But it ain't enough to cover the pain

I've always been a fool
For a conversation and a couple of smokes
Yeah, and when I'm feeling this blue
I just need someone to laugh at my jokes

And I am waiting for Christchurch woman in the rain
And its early evening so there's hope for a better day

Now I know its getting late
It's Friday night
And the crowd's are starting to fade away
And I know I shouldn't be here waiting on her
But I keep thinking any second
She'll be coming 'round the corner

And I should be in my room, and I should learn how to forget
Well, she may be pretty
Oh, but someday I'll get sick of her shit

I am waiting for Christchurch woman in the rain
The rain keep coming
But it ain't enough to cover the pain
And I am waiting for Christchurch woman in the rain
And its early evening so there's hope for a better day
