The Rain Song

David Duchovny

Compositor: David Duchovny

People just keep movin' around
Tryin' to find a place in the Sun
Layin' their towels and their troubles down
When you feel like the day's too long
Nowhere to hide nowhere you belong
Put your hand out feel the heavens come down to you
Love is all you need that's what the book of John taught you

But you wanna see clouds above
And I know that better than anyone
Because my darling, it's the rain you love
It'll always be raining in this song

Years from now when you're old and gray
Stories of your beauty just empty hearsay
The way I look at you will make you young again
These humble chords will gather clouds above
My words will seed those clouds with love
Our memories will ring sweetness round the pain
A fistful of love in a box of rain

Baby, baby now it won't be long
If you're feeling down and put upon
Nothing this strong could ever be wrong
It's always raining in this song

Baby I'm not a meteorologist
Or an armchair astrologist
But I don't need no weatherman
To tell me when to make a stand

Now baby, baby as the heavens descend
You and I will say amen
This old cold front will move along

Baby, baby as the heavens descend
You and I will make amends
Meet me back here where you belong
It's always rainin'
It's always rainin'
It's always raining in this song
