This song is the sequel to City Love, set in post-9/11 New York.
Very rarely performed live, one of the best versions you can find is him performing it on his live album, “Any Given Thursday”
[Verse 1]
And these days with the world getting colder
She spends more time sleeping over
Than I planned
Tonight we're gonna order in
Drinking wine and watching CNN
It's dark, I know
But then again
It's the brightest thing I've got
[Chorus]
When I'm covered in rain, rain
When I'm covered in rain, rain, rain, rain
[Verse 2]
From fireworks to fireplaces
Summer stole what fall replaces
And now, and now we're people watching
All the people, people watching us right back now
Standing by the missing signs
At the CVS, by the checkout line
She puts her quiet hands in mine
Cause she's the brightest thing I got
[Chorus]
Oh, I'm covered in rain
Oh, I'm covered in rain
Oh, I'm covered in rain
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
And come December Lydia left
She mentioned something about it being for the best
And I can't say I disagree
And it's killing me
And now I'm standing facing west
Tracing my fingers around a silhouette
I haven't gotten used to yet
But it's the brightest thing I got
[Outro]
When I'm covered in rain
