You better know by know she said
I made no effort to defend myself against her claim
There wasn't anything to add, and so I blurted out
I guess it's gonna rain today
What a silly thing to put you through, I know better
Lost for words because I'm losing you
Didn't I promise you I knew better?

Hurry home before the sky breaks out
You can't predict things that happen all the time
Hurry, but don't take my word for it, babe
I don't know, but I guess it's gonna rain today
I don't know, but I guess it's gonna rain today

She said to get the hell away
And left me standing in the doorway like a tired cliche
I thought I had it all pinned down, now I'm the guy who said
I guess it's gonna rain today
Oh, the fine line between street-smartness and a smart ass
Oh, the skipping beats of confidence
And the drumroll that you thought you could play

Hurry home before the sky breaks out
No point predicting things that happen all the time
Hurry, but don't take my word for it, babe
I don't know, but I guess it's gonna rain today
I don't know, but I guess it's gonna rain today

But I'm sure that you've known this all along
Oh, I'm sure that you've known this all along
