I heard you got some rain
Peterborough and the Kawarthas
Looks like we're in for the same
Peterborough and the Kawarthas

[Verse 2]
I'm going early, won't wave goodbye
Tell him I love him; look him in the eye
I've learned how to mourn; I've learned how to miss
Let me disappear with this kiss

[Bridge]
(Same chords as the chorus) x8
Tuesday: A mix of sun and cloud with a 40% chance of showers early in the morning; then sunny.
Winds West 20 kilometers per hour, gusting to 40. High of 22. UV index 50; moderate.

[Verse 3]
Bird, book, and basketball
Squirrel, dog, and learning how to crawl
I found my heart when he came
Let my leaving leave like rain

[Chorus]
I watched you from the train
Peterborough and the Kawarthas
When I come back I'll see you again
Peterborough and the Kawarthas

[Coda]
(Again, same chords as the chorus) x8 
I listen for you every morning
I listen for you every morning
I listen for you every morning
I listen for you every morning

(End on D)
