Rainy Day In Centerville

Rainy Day In Centerville - Minnie Riperton/STEPNEY/Rudolph

Sitting all alone I hear

The tapping of the rain

Dance ballerina dance

Talking with the rain in some

Small city I feel the pain

She's dancing all alone

Thinking how wed wait together

Sitting by the fire in weather just like this

Playing lovers games;

Hoping the rain would never end

And I thought about the night we met

How the gentle rain fell down

Kissed the ground

Then I knew no one ever could take your place

Sitting all alone I hear the tapping of the rain

Dance ballerina dance

Talking with the rain in some

Small city I feel the pain

She's dancing all alone

Nothing seems the same but the falling rain

Youve gone away

Walking by the sea;

Sitting beneath a tree;

You are not here

And I thought about the night we met

How the gentle rain fell down kissed the ground

Then I knew no one ever could take your place
