The Grateful Dead
Looks Like Rain (Live at Pershing Municipal Auditorium, Lincoln, NE, February 26, 1973)
[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 waken to the sound of street cats making love?
You guess from their 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 break]

[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]
Brave the storm to come for it surely looks like rain
Turning gray, looks like rain
Turning gray and it surely looks like rain
Looks like rain, feels like rain
Oh, here comes the rain
Turning gray and it surely looks like rain
It looks like rain and it feels like rain
Oh, oh, it looks like rain
Brave the storm to come for it surely it looks like rain
Oh, oh, turning gray and it looks like rain
