Lyrics

SWEET RAIN
James Michael Taylor

It's been a long dry spell
I haven't done that well
And when you reach a certain level
You just get by

I could draw you a map of hell
Oh, the stories I could tell
I watched a daughter of the devil
Break down and cry. . .She cried for. . .

CHORUS
Rain, rain, rain, SWEET RAIN
Rain, rain, rain, SWEET RAIN
Rain to wash the salt away
Rain to melt a cloudy day. . .SWEET RAIN

Instrumental break

The sun can ruin the land
Turn your gardens into sand
Lap all the water from the river
Till it runs dry

Oh, the ocean's seen it all
It's lived to watch the forest crawl
Following the clouds across the mountains
Now, tell me, ?Why?? . .For

CHORUS
Rain, rain, rain, SWEET RAIN
Rain, rain, rain, SWEET RAIN
Rain to wash the salt away
Rain to melt a cloudy day. . .SWEET RAIN
