We met as two total strangers
As many lovers often do
But who could have ever seen the danger
I didn't know I'd fall in love with you

[Chorus]
You are this lonely picker's daydream
Like a wish that's wishing to come true
So Liberty just now I'm waiting
To share this love song with you

But do you think about me when you're lying in his bed
Won't you take the time to explain
Do you ever think you'd rather be with me instead
Or do you only think about me when it rains

We shared some special nights together
We said we'd watch the morning rise
But when the sun was all around us
Wasn't nothing I hadn't seen in your eyes

I try so hard to keep it hidden
But I am hurting deep inside
For every time I've seen you smile
There are two times that I have cried

[Chorus]

Now and forever my love will be the same
I will be waiting underneath the pouring rain

    General Comment:My favorite VH song too!!! It makes me cry to think about it... something about the guitar, and the passion in his voice... ahhh.

    I don't understand the "lonely picker's daydream" part, though... help?
