I waited for you   You waited for me   That it seemed like, seemed like a mighty long time    Baby I had to have you   Oh, I had to have you   Come rain, rain or shine       It was a cold wind in August   Shivers up and down my spine   I was standin' in your garden   In the California pine       I was standing shivering   I've got the fever in the rain   But I can't come on back to see you   Again and again and again       I said I, I had to have you   Baby I had to have you   Come rain, come rain or shine       It was a cold wind in August   Shivers up and down my spine   And I was standing in your garden       In the California pine   California pine       (instrumental)       It was a cold wind in August   Shivers up and down my spine   I was standin' in your garden   In the California pine   In the California pine It was a cold wind in August   I was pushed on through September   Oh pushin' through September   In the rain   Pushin' through, pushin' through September   In the rain       Ooh   It was a cold wind in August   Shivers up and down my spine   I was standin' standin' in your garden   In the California pine
