[Intro] Rain on Wall Street. Everybody looks important in the dark. [Verse 1] Black umbrellas moving like they know the route Numbers in the windows, everybody figuring it out Suits on the corner talking like the future’s guaranteed Funny how the rain makes everybody walk with speed Gold in the lobby, red on the screen Everybody selling what tomorrow might mean One hand shaking, one eye on the clock Whole city betting while the rain hits the block [Hook] Rain on Wall Street Cold on the glass Everybody moving Like the moment won’t pass Money talks loud But the night talks deep Rain on Wall Street Nothing stays cheap [Verse 2] Taxis cut through reflections on stone Somebody made millions, somebody went home Headlines change before the train doors close Everybody knows less than everybody shows Old money, new money, all under one sky Different kind of story when the market runs dry You can dress it in numbers, dress it in pride But the rain has a way of washing off the disguise [Hook] Rain on Wall Street Cold on the glass Everybody moving Like the moment won’t pass Money talks loud But the night talks deep Rain on Wall Street Nothing stays cheap [Bridge] No prediction. No sermon. Just watch the city. [Verse 3] Terry by the corner with the collar pulled high Watching black cars disappear into the night Doesn’t need the rumor, doesn’t need the pitch Seen too many stories turn with one little switch The city keeps score in a language of light Some people chase mornings, some people chase nights Whatever you call it, whatever you sell Rain keeps falling and the ledger keeps well [Final Hook] Rain on Wall Street Gold in the drain Same old ambition Different kind of rain Everybody certain Until certainty leaves Rain on Wall Street City still breathes [Outro] Tomorrow they’ll call it business. Tonight, it’s just New York.
