Lyrics

DUBLIN IN THE RAIN
Lyric by Carol Hall
Music by Hubert Arnold


DUBLIN IN THE RAIN
IS LIKE A CURL OF SMOKE...
HAS THE SMELL OF OAK AND HONEY...
FUNNY LITTLE SAD MELODIES
PLAYIN? ON A HORN AND A FIFE...
WALKED INTO A PUB TO WARM MY KNEES,
BUMPED RIGHT INTO YOU, AND MY LIFE...

YOU KNEW DUBLIN...
WALKED ME DOWN ALL THOSE COBBLED STREETS...
TEA AND JAM, AND AFTERNOONS
ON IRISH LINEN SHEETS...
LULLABYE, AN OLD GAELIC SONG...
WRAPPED ME ?ROUND IN YOUR ARMS ALL NIGHT LONG...
MORNINGS BROUGHT A SIGHT BEYOND COMPARE...
DUBLIN IN THE RAIN, AND YOU THERE...


DUBLIN IN THE RAIN...
WELL, IT CAN BREAK YOUR HEART...
FINALLY HAD TO START THE LEAVIN?...
WEAVIN? ALL MY THREADS INTO ONE,
KNOWING THAT THE WORLD IS IMMENSE...
SEARCHING FOR THE RACE THAT MUST BE WON...
LOOKING FOR THE ROAD THAT MAKES SENSE...

YOU KNEW DUBLIN...
WALKED ME DOWN ALL THOSE COBBLED STREETS...
TEA AND JAM AND AFTERNOONS
ON IRISH LINEN SHEETS...
LULLABYE, AN OLD GAELIC SONG...
WRAPPED ME ?ROUND IN YOUR ARMS ALL NIGHT LONG...
NOW I?M WATCHING THE RAIN,
AND I WONDER HOW YOU ARE...
SOMEDAY I?LL GO BACK TO DUBLIN
