[Verse 1] There's two sides to every story Two lanes to every road One headed for forever God knows where the other one goes Looks like you took the right one when you left me In your automatic, problematic Chevy I can't believe that [Chorus] Ooh, I used to be out standing in the rain Written on your headlights pouring through my windowpane But I sold that broken-hearted Hopeless home on lonely lane where you left me And got a pretty good deal on goodbye street [Verse 2] That new porch swing on my front porch Gets to swing a whole lot more My favorite shade of powder blue's fresh on my front door The grass is so much greener on this side of my picket fence And when the red birds sing out here, I swear I could forget that
[Chorus] Ooh, I used to be out standing in the rain Written on your headlights pouring through my windowpane But I sold that broken-hearted Hopeless home on lonely lane where you left me And got a pretty good deal on goodbye street Hey, yeah [Bridge] Where the sun is shinin' always Brand new face in my picture frames The more I love you's in the hallways The less I wish you'd stayed [Chorus] Ooh, I used to be out standing in the rain Written on your headlights pouring through my windowpane But I sold that broken-hearted Hopeless home on lonely lane where you left me And got a pretty good deal on goodbye street (Ooh, ooh) And got a pretty good deal on goodbye street (Ooh, ooh)
