                 C  
Outside of the window  
                    F  
I was sticking with you  
             C  
We were only kids then  
           F  
We'd get soaked right through  
           C  
We used to tell them  
                 F  
I was staying at yours  
                 C  
Sheltered in our own worlds  
               F  
We'd watch the rain right through  
Dm   
ooh-ooh-ooh  
Dm    
ooh-ooh-ooh  
               C     F  
We grew up at midnight

We were only kids then  

Dm         
Loving woman loving man  
                              C  
Here for you doing the best we can  
Dm            
Hard to figure hard to bare  
                                   C  
Hard to think knowing how much you care  
         Dm              
It's the strangest thing through thick and thin  
                                    C  
All this time kept the promise you made  
Dm             
If you're telling I'll be told  
                                             C  
I'll come running and be there as soon as I can  

                 C  
Outside of the window  
                    F

We'd get soaked right through
