Rainy Sundays

Lyrics

Rainy Sundays, windy dreams Cloudy memories, fading scenes Down in Ljubljana, they've never seen such a motley crew Some in search of Nirvana and some of us with nothing else to do Only stopped for a moment to shelter from the rain It wasn't till five months later, that I was traveling again If you're heading down towards the East Stay on the road my friend Don't break your heart for Vida In a Slovenian dead end Rainy Sundays, windy dreams Cloudy memories, fading scenes In a Supermarket storeroom, it's dirty but it's whеre we all doss down It's undernеath the cold ground, no shaft of light has ever shown us round Wake up in the morning (Or is it the afternoon?) And it's rumored every evening Police are going to get us soon But they never do and anyway, I'd die a hero's death For when I'm in her company, the world holds it's breath Rainy Sundays, sodden feet flap along on the flags Zany, some days, me and the boys we fall around at the gags When I'm waiting for Vida Get drunk as a rule When I finally see her Does she think I'm a fool? For she wears an air of mystery It suits her well you know And I wear my heart upon my sleeve Hope it doesn't show But it's only make believe Visions in a waking dream Like dust that dances in a hazy sunbeam Sometimes at night Wake with a start To see your smile Fade in the dark Rainy Sundays, windy dreams Can't seem to rid myself of these nostalgic scenes At the station waiting, as sullen clouds scud across the sky Humiliating, the birds on the gray wind seem to cry All my companions are seated on the train Going to spend the day at the sea but she's let me down again And as the train rolls down the line I roll back into town To sear old haunts For she who taunts Her lonely hand-me-down One Sunday at the skating, told her I was tired of playing pretend Incapacitating, these windy dreams that are my childhood friend You never know the cards you hold Until you play them wrong For now she's long gone But the moments flown and so's the luck As lucky moments may And a windy dream can come unstuck On any Rainy Sunday Standing on the Sava's banks That random moment's trapped in time The ghost of you still stalks across my mind A smiling girl Turns her back Walks away Fades to black
