Lyrics
Hey, hey, hey, hey Ooh, woah Won't you come see about me? I'll be alone, dancing, you know it, baby Tell me your troubles and doubts Giving me everything inside and out Love's strange, surreal in the dark Think of the tender things that we were working on Slow change may pull us apart When the light gets into your heart, baby Don't you forget about me Don't, don't, don't, don't Don't you forget about me Will you stand above me? Look my way, never love me Rain keeps falling Rain keeps falling down, down, down Will you recognize me? Call my name or walk on by Rain keeps falling Rain keeps falling down, down, down, down Hey, hey, hey, hey Ooh, woah
