[Verse 1]
I believe I've attempted every move that I know
I was sure that by now you'd have let yourself go
I've been living my heart out, and without any shame
Gotten down on my knees just to kindle this flame

[Chorus 1]
But tonight I am down to the wire
I've been striking these matches in vain
Got a whole lot of smoke but no fire
'Cause you've got a heart full of rain

[Verse 2]
Now somewhere in your history there's a reason or two
Why you won't let a body get close to you
Why the truth that I whisper always sounds like a lie
Why you're drowning inside from the tears you don't cry

[Chorus 2]
But your eyes have never been dryer
And you smile like you're feeling no pain
Got a whole lot of smoke but no fire
'Cause you got a heart full of rain

[Bridge]
I had hoped I could open the heart that you hide
'Cause it sure needs a little sunshine inside
[Chorus 1]
But tonight I am down to the wire
I've been striking these matches in vain
Got a whole lot of smoke but no fire
'Cause you got a heart full of rain
