"Raining In Athens" lyrics

"Raining In Athens"

Still, I think of you baby
And how I grew old with you then
In the summer, you'll go maybe
And act as if we were old friends

You'd say, "How are you, baby?"
I'd say, "It's raining in Athens."
It's raining in Athens

And to this day I miss the fever
That spoiled my poor heart
And I've mastered the art of dealing
Slipping away without falling apart
So, in the summer you'll call maybe
And ask how I've been

I can be honest and answer plainly
"Since November, it's been raining."
It's raining in Athens
