About the song
Thinking of a London girl who is tired of working 3rd shift and having no money leaves her life behind and winds up feeling the same way 20 years later with her new life. Life is very ironic I think.
Sometimes the best choice is the one we dont take. I started thinking about the trains in London and the rain and well Standing alone in the Rain seemed like a natural thing to do.
Lyrics
Standing in the Rain

Words Music Tony DeLecce 10/11/2009

Working every night until the break of day
She said shea€™s getting tired living pay to pay
Standing on the platform waiting for the train
She took a step outside as it started to rain

She was standing alone in the Rain

Walking down the sidewalk she had plenty on her mind
She wanted to leave all of her problems behind
Walked around the corner away from the train
She lost track of time now it was too late

She was standing alone in the rain
Bridge
She needed something that shea€™ll never find
She needed something that she left behind

Waking up alone in the middle of the night
No one is there and nothing is right
It was twenty years ago when she walked out in the rain
She missed her train and now its too late

Shea€™s standing alone in the rain

Living alone, feeling afraid
She said shea€™s getting tired of the Day to Day
Nobody said things would be this way
She took a step outside as it started to rain

Shea€™s standing alone in the rain

Bridge
She needs something that shea€™ll never find
She needs something that she left behind

Working every night until the break of day
She said shea€™s getting tired living pay to pay
Standing on the platform waiting for the train
She took a step outside as it started to rain

Shea€™s standing alone in the rain
Shea€™s standing alone in the rain
