The Grateful Dead
Looks Like Rain (Live at Fairgrounds Arena, Oklahoma City, OK, October 19, 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, 'cause I love you
That's not gonna change
Run me around, 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]

[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, used to havin' you around
My landscape would be empty if you were gone
[Chorus]
But it's alright, 'cause I love you
That's not gonna change
Run me around, 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 'cause it looks like rain
In the world the people say, here comes the rain
Looks like rain and it feels like rain
Oh, oh, looks like rain, it looks like rain
Everywhere the people say, here comes the rain
Whole world looks gray, it looks rain
Looks like rain and it feels like rain
Oh, oh, here comes the rain, it looks like rain
Oh, looks gray and it looks like rain

We gotta, we gotta re-plug some stuff here, it'll take about thirty seconds, so you in this time should feel free to talk amongst yourselves
