Hello, Rain Lyrics

packing boxes all night
reading letters from you for the last time
for real
leaving you behind was easy
now I know how little you feel

now I wasted all my wishes on you
I have nothing left to gain
so goodbye, wishing you well and hello rain
I made a paper boat and watched it going down the drain
so goodbye, wishing you well and hello rain


thought I'd thrown them all away
finding one last souvenir behind
my bureau drawer
feeling sad all on my own
I don't need you for that anymore

and I wasted all my wishes on you
I have nothing left to gain
so goodbye, wishing you well and hello rain
I made a paper boat and watched it going down the drain
so goodbye, wishing you well and hello rain

you can't stand to see me losing
all my precious sinlessness
now my heart is out of your hands
you couldn't possibly want it back
any less

now I wasted all my wishes on you
I have nothing left to gain
so goodbye, wishing you well and hello rain
I made a paper boat and watched it going down the drain
so goodbye, wishing you well and hello rain
goodbye, wishing you well and hello rain

The Softies refers to two bands:

(1) The Softies were Rose Melberg and Jen Sbragia, who both sang and played guitar. They recorded somewhat-wistful love songs mostly consisting of nothing but their two voices and gently intertwining electric guitars. Rose Melberg was in twee bands Tiger Trap, Gaze and Go Sailor; Jen Sbragia was in Pretty Face and is also in All Girl Summer Fun Band. The Softies disbanded, and since then Rose Melberg has pursued her solo work, while Jen Sbragia continues with All Girl Summer Fun Band.

(2) The Softies was a Dutch punk band that released two singles in 1977/78, one of them, Suicide Pilot, featured on Killed By Death #1234 compilation. They also released a full-length LP entitled Nice And Nasty. They performed with Captain Sensible (after he left The Damned) on one 7", covering the gay punk anthem Jet Boy, Jet Girl.
