Looks Like Rain (Live at Nassau Coliseum, May 15-16, 1980)
[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]
But it's all right 'cause I love you, and that’s not going to 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 the cries you were 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]
[Verse 3]
I only want to hold you, I don't want to tie you down, no
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]
But it's alright ’cause I love you, and that's not going to 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]
Yes, it looks like rain
The storm is comin' ’cause it looks like rain
Surely rain, it looks like rain
Yes, it looks like rain
Well, the storms are comin' 'cause here come the rain
'Cause here come the rain
Well, it looks like rain and it feels like rain, Lord
Here come the rain
Yes, it looks like rain and it feels like rain, oh Lord
Here come the rain
Said it looks like rain and it feels like rain, oh Lord
Here comes the rain
I believe it's gonna rain today
Said it looks like rain and it feels like rain, oh Lord
Here comes the rain
Said it looks like rain and it feels like rain, oh, oh
Here comes the rain
Said it looks like rain and it feels like rain, oh Lord, oh
Here comes the rain
