And here she comes again, walking the high street
Wearing an overcoat in house slipper feet
Who knows where she is going
Or whom she's going to meet
I just wish her a good day
I saw her at the market - I was at the cafe
She walked right up to me
As though she had something to say
So I gave her the change she asked for
And wished her on her way
Yes I agreed it looked the perfect day
And it may feel like you're crying in the rain
Spending your money just to forget your pain
It must feel like you're crying in the rain
Begging for pennies just to foregt your pain
She's not the only one
There's more 'round the corner
She could be a Mum, or somebody's daughter
All I can do is sing a song in her honour
As I'm wishing her on her way
And it may feel like you're crying in the rain
Spending your money just to forget your pain
It must feel like you're crying in the rain
Begging for pennies just to foregt your pain
So next time you see her, pull up a chair
And you see her fluffing up her hair
Please don't act like you don't care
'Cause we all got 10 minutes to spare
And it may feel like you're crying in the rain
Spending your money just to forget your pain
It must feel like you're crying in the rain
Begging for pennies just to foregt your pain
