Lyrics
Rain on a street that's not my own Smells like a street I once had known Warm wet stone and a baking tray Home is a smell that won't go away Take me home, take me home Rain on a warm street, I'm not alone Smell of home in the evening air I close my eyes and I am there Kitchen window and the steam Voices singing in a dream Far away, but near tonight Home is a soft and golden light Take me home, take me home Rain on a warm street, I'm not alone Smell of home in the evening air I close my eyes and I am there Years and miles are made of rain Falling slow and falling plain Every drop is a door ajar Home is never very far Take me home, take me home Rain on a warm street, I'm not alone Smell of home in the evening air I close my eyes and I am there I close my eyes and I am there I close my eyes and I am there
