	Story Behind the Song This is a story about a guy who has been, and still is in love with a girl who can't seem to stop running. She loves him but lies and says she doesn't. She always shows up at his door step when it storms outside.. (This is a symbol for all her difficulties and hard times..) He wants to refuse her when she shows up but can't.. Lyrics She's got one foot in tomorrow One foot stuck in yesterday She wears a new dress that she borrowed With some old shoes that she'd found thrown away Cause someone told her once And now it's in her head That she looks her best when wearing red And I can't argue with what I see She's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen Now she stands in my doorway crying So sad when she looks at me She said she can't go back to where she was before And even if she did she locked her keys in the door And the weather man said It's surly going to rain tonight And what about my dress Such a long way home AND SHE CAN'T FIND A RIDE (hint) It's dark out there And it's cold outside Please, can I stay with you tonight Can I stay with you tonight And yes it rained and thundered all night long We lit some candles and turned off the phone She opens up the window to feel the rain My heart starts racing, yea I know this game And she keeps saying she's not in love with me She says it's just to hard to set me free But through the window I see her car outside I'm really not surprised I've known all along she lied But she stands in my door way crying And when she looks up at me (Chorus) I must be some kind of fool to let her in again Oh, but I can't help myself this time Just like the last time Cause it's only me who's going to get hurt in the end Oh, I must be losing losing my mind All these years have past... And we keep going on this way... Every time it storms outside.... She would show up, at my door and say... (Chorus) Copyright jroy 2000 Joe Roy
