hey you,
you're the singer, why don't you come out tonight
out tonight, out tonight, yeah.
i'm a believer, i'm a dreamer, i'm stumbling around
and i heard that certain something
and i have to find the sound.
i was lost, but baby now i'm found.

and you,
you're not the first one.
and you really should know.

she only wants you when you're taken
(she only wants you)
she only loves you when it's raining
(she only loves you)
she only comes around to sing away the pain.
she's only happy when it's grey.

the thought of your body,
she never gets used to it,
used to it, used to it, yeah.
feels like a shadow of what she used to be,
used to be.
thinking she had that certain something
but she learned it's just a trait
and it's worse the older that you get.

so you don't come around, yeah.
you're wasting your time.

she only wants you when you're taken
(she only wants you)
she only loves you when it's raining
(she only loves you)
she only comes around to sing away the pain.
she's only happy when it's grey.

slowly but surely, she will bring you down
so don't you come around.

she only wants you cause you're taken
(she only loves you)
she only loves you when it's raining, yeah.

she only wants you when you're taken
(she only wants you)
she only loves you when it's raining
(she only loves you)
she only comes around to sing away the pain.
she's only happy when it's grey.
