The Grateful Dead
Looks Like Rain (Live at Academy of Music, New York, NY, March 28, 1972)
[Intro]
This one kinda speaks for itself
Time for a crying song, folks

[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]
It's alright, I love you
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 wakеn to the sound of street cats making love?
You guess from thеir cries you were listening to a fight
Well, you know, oh, hate's just the last thing they're thinking of
You're only tryin' to make it through the night

[Instrumental]
[Verse 3]
I only wanna hold you, I don't wanna tie you down
Or fit you in the lines I might've drawn
It's just that I, I, have gotten used to havin' you around
My landscape would be empty, if you were gone

[Chorus]
It's alright, I love you
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]
Whoa, looks like rain
Turning gray, looks like rain
Whole world's turning gray and it looks like rain
Don't tell me, it sure 'nough looks like rain
Oh, oh, oh, looks like rain
Turning gray, looks like rain
Oh, oh, oh, looks like rain
Turning gray, surely looks like rain
Oh, oh, oh, looks like rain
