Jerry Garcia
Looks Like Rain (Live at Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum, Uniondale, NY, May 6, 1981)
[Verse 1]
I woke today, felt your side of the bed
The covers were still warm where you'd been layin'
You were gone, my heart was filled with dread
You might not be sleeping here again
[Chorus]
Well, it's alright, 'cause I love you
And that's not gonna change
Run me around and make me hurt again and again
But I'll still sing you love songs
Written in the letters of your name
And brave the storm to come
For it surely looks like rain
[Verse 2]
Did you ever waken to the sound of street cats making lovе?
You'd guess from their cries you wеre listening to a fight
Well, you know, oh, hate's just the last thing they're thinking of
They're only tryin' to make it through the night
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
I only wanna hold you, I don't wanna tie you down
Or fence you in the lines I might've drawn
It's just that I, I, I have gotten used to havin' you around
My landscape would be empty if you were gone
[Chorus]
Well, it's alright, 'cause I love you
And that's not gonna change
Run me around and make me hurt again and again
But I'll still sing you love songs
Written in the letters of your name
And brave the storm to come
For it surely looks like rain
[Outro]
I believe it's gonna rain today
Keep it comin' now, here come the rain
Ooh, keep it comin' now, here come the rain, here come the rain
Ooh, keep it comin' now, here come the rain, here come the rain
Ooh, turnin' gray and it looks like rain
Here come the rain, here come the rain
Ooh, wish these clouds would go but here come the rain
Here come the rain
[Instrumental Break]
Well, it looks like rain and it feels like rain, Lord
Here come the rain
Well, it looks like rain and it feels like rain, oh Lord
Here come the rain, here come the rain
Said it looks like rain and it feels like rain, oh Lord
Here come the rain
Wish these clouds would go away
Well, it looks like rain and it feels like rain, whoa Lord
Here come the rain
Guess it's gonna rain today
Well, it looks like rain and it feels like rain, Lord
Whoa, here come the rain, here come the rain
It looks like rain and it feels like rain, whoa Lord
Here come the rain
Well now the whole world's turnin' gray
And it looks like rain and it feels like rain
Oh, here come the rain, here come the rain
It looks like rain and it feels like rain, Lord
Here come the rain
Here come the rain
