Story Behind The Song

The song was written about a situation I experienced while married to my first wife. During a holliday she didn't come home one morning and for five days I experienced total fear and emotional breakdown. She returned but we still broke-up later.

Song Description

This song is a story wraped in music. It has a well arranged piano carrying the lead of the background. The song is quite energetic for a love song. The vocals sounds like a cross of Usher and Al Green. The tempo is swift and allows one to bounce along with the tune. The main interesting thing about the song that it draws your attention thru the story-line like a soap opera. The hook and chorus is repeated continuous thru the song and make a good back-up for the lead vocals.

Lyrics

[Verse One]

Breathing through my heart, wondering where could she possibly be

Six o?clock in the morning, please don?t let it happen to me

[Chorus]

But it looks like rain, feels like rain
Feels like rain??looks like rain (BG Vocals)
Like one of those thangs baby, just like rain
Baby baby baby baabaaby (BG)
[Verse Two]

Time to take a shower, don?t be late for work

I can?t believe that she?s not home, maybe she?s been hurt

[Chorus]

But it feels like rain, looks like rain
Feels like rain??looks like rain (BG)
Like one of those thangs baby, just like rain
Baby baby baby baabaaby (BG)
[Verse Three]

Five o?clock has come, and I finally get off work

People asking ?what?s wrong?? but I dare not share this hurt

I been calling all day long, but no one answers the phone

[Chorus]

And it feels like rain, looks like rain
Feels like rain??looks like rain (BG)
Like one of those thangs baby, just like rain
Baby baby baby baabaaby (BG)
And I drive, tryin to make it home

And I drive, fear that something?s wrong

It must be the rain baby, feels like rain
Baby baby baby baabaaby (BG)
Like one of those thangs baby, just like rain
Baby baby baby baabaaby (BG)
[Verse Four]

Walking up the stairs, put my key into the door

Hoping that, she?d be there but her note was on the floor

[Chorus]

And it felt like rain, looks like rain
Feels like rain??looks like rain (BG)
Like one of those thangs baby, just like rain

And I cried, no words can explain

And I cried, why sunshine turned to rain

It must be the rain baby, feels like rain
Baby baby baby baabaaby (BG)
Like one of those thangs baby, just like rain
Baby baby baby baabaaby (BG)
[Verse Five]

Three o?clock in the morning, and I still can?t get no rest

Maybe I should take something for the pain that?s in my chest

Feels like rain, just like rain
Feels like rain??Baby baby baby baabaaby (BG)
Driving in my car, as the morning turns to light

Desperate in my mind, I need this woman in my life

Please don?t rain, looks like rain
Please don?t rain??Baby baby baby baabaaby (BG)
Don?t look in the mirror, heartbreak is all you?ll see

There?s rain all in my eyes, I can?t hardly drive and see

Tell me a man ain?t suppose to cry, so baby what?s goin-on with me

In this rain, in this rain
In this rain??Baby baby baby baabaaby (BG)
And I drive, rain drops in my eyes

And I drive, sunshine would be nice

To get through the rain baby , get through the rain
Baby baby baby baabaaby (BG)
Get through this rain baby, get through the rain
Baby baby baby baabaaby (BG)
Get through this rain baby, get through the rain
Baby baby baby baabaaby (BG)
Get through this rain baby, get through the rain
Baby baby baby baabaaby (BG)
Get through this rain baby, get through the rain
