{verse 1}
It's been a while, ain't it?
Still hear your voice, though it's fadin'
And your face followed me through my days
Yeah, i miss your blue eyes and your strength
{verse 2}
As months go by the nights get shorter
Though they're nothing like when i used to hold ya
Sleep's getting easier all the time
My shirts smell like me again
But i miss digging for my flannels mixed up in your face
{chorus}
Diana, you were the roof when all was rain
Now i stand outside but the weather's changing
And on some days you still cover my sky
But i know now my clothes will dry
I don't need a roof tonight
I'll be alright without you
{post-chorus}
Whoa, i'm needing not to need you
{bridge}
But i wish you knew about my life
Remember that truck you loved?
It blew up the other night
And i got in to music school
How's the nursing thing?
Did they accept you?
Oh, i wish i knew
{chorus}
Diana, you were the roof when all was rain
Now i stand outside but the weather's changing
And on some days you still cover my sky
But i know now my clothes will dry
I don't need a roof tonight
I'll be alright without you
{post-chorus}
Na-na-na-na (na-na)
Na-na-na i'm needing not to need you
Na-na-na-na (na-na)
Na-na-na i needing not to need you
Na-na-na-na (na-na)
Na-na-na i needing not to need you
{chorus}
Diana, you were the roof when all was rain
Now i stand outside but the weather's changing
And on some days you still cover my sky
But i know now my clothes will dry
I don't need a roof tonight
I'll be alright without you
