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 the window
Staring down into the streets
Just when the lightning flashed
And the thunder rolled and the telephone ring

I'm waiting for Christchurch woman in the rain
and the rain keep coming but it ain't enough to cover the pain

Now, 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.

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

Now I know its getting late
It's Friday night and the crowds 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 but someday I'll get sick of her shit
I'm waiting for Christchurch woman in the rain
The rain keep coming but it ain't enough to cover the pain
I'm waiting for Christchurch woman in the rain
And its early evening so there's hope for a better day
