Dr. Jules - Florentine Rain lyrics

As the florentine rain streamed down, Walking through the streets of that rainy town, I felt my losing you like nothing else, Just a shadow of your former self I was up and down, emotions so wide, Love and hate mixed with injured pride, I should have seen it coming to the fray, But I chose to be with you for one last day And you were kind to me there at the last, You found the love that you had in the past, The rain it soaked us to our very bones, But that day I felt that I was back at home As the florentine rain, washed away the anger in my heart, I could only, play my now familiar part, To give to you was pleasure purity, To watch you become my Venus there for me Time was frozen like an Uffizzi cast, Images returned to me thick and fast, The Ponte Vecchio was draped with tears, Not a ray of sunshine did appear I saw you cry once as we parted ways, I thought I'd see again such a day, But you had dropped me firmly from your plans, As the train rolled in slowly to Milan
