Not New Wave but need to know.

It's not really a new wave song but I'm having a hard time identifying this song. All I know is from a cassette recorded in the early 90's.



The lyrics as far as I could make them out anyway.

Watching and waiting and praying for the rain
Waiting for anything to wash away the pain I've been feeling
Everybody tells me I ain't lost

Hey mister bartender, give me a drink
Pull up a chair, tell me whatcha think
I've been missing, everybody tells me it's everything


Ten years gone without a trace
Just a bittersweet taste and a few old sad songs

Bag of bones sleeping on floors like a bug
Everyone creepin on they like the drugs and (candle?)
Everybody tells me I ain't lost

Ten years gone without a trace
Just a bittersweet taste and a few old sad songs in my head
I just stare out the window with dread praying for rain

(repeat)


Usual Google searches have turned up nothing. The Youtube clip is named Praying For Rain but we have no idea if that is indeed the title.
