Song Of The Day: Looks Like Rain



"Ace" Version


Long Beach 12-14-1980 version(I was there)

Awoke today, felt your side of the bed;
The covers were still warm where you been layin'.
You were gone, oh gone, my heart was filled with dread;
You might not be sleeping here again.
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

Did you ever waken to the sound of street cats making love?
And guess from their cries you were listening to a fight.
Well you know, hate's just the last thing they're thinking of.
They're only tryin' to make it thru the night.

I only want to hold you, I wouldn't want to tie you down
Or fence you in with lines I might've drawn.
It's just that I, oh I, have gotten used to havin' you around.
My landscape would be empty, if you were gone;
But it's all right cause I love you, and that's not going to 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.
