Story Behind The Song
I was thinking about the cat's eyes in the middle of the road and car lights reflecting on them and then I thought about the rain and it being night time and how the mind could wonder with the light triggering the imagination.

Lyrics
The rain is falling steadily
As I drive alone tonight
Shining in the headlights
Cat's-eyes burning bright
Seeing you on this road
As the rain hits the screen
A painful thought is pinching me
As I see you in this glowing scene
Cold shivers run down my spine
As you dance through my mind
And time seems to stand still
As it feels almost real
But I keep on driving into the rain
Cat's-eyes reflecting heart felt pain
My mind is driving me insane
When I see you in the glowing light
From cat's-eyes burning bright
Will I ever see you again
Feel the touch of your hand
Persuasive charm cool demands
Miss them it makes me sad
You dance steady like the rain
You're a figment, you're my pain
My mind is slowly going insane
When I see you in the glowing light
From cat's eyes
I keep on driving into the rain
Cat's-eyes reflecting heart felt pain
My mind is going insane
When I see you in the glowing light
From cat's-eyes burning bright
You are the cat's-eyes burning bright
The glowing light that's teasing me
Freeze my heart, body and soul
On this wet and lonely night
