Lyrics
Summer Rain (Amaoto*)
Words and Music by:
Phil Morrison
Clouds from an Asian sky -
Riding on the winds of change in summer
Rains come like tears that cleanse the eye -
Listen......hear the rain
Sunshine has slipped away
As the light is dimmed for dreams in slumber
Fields turn from green to misty grey
Listen......hear the rain
Gone is the sound of silence
New rhythms......are near
Old songs from deep inside us
Make memories......reappear
Warm is the summer air
As the cooling waters fall from heaven
Raindrops are dancing without care
Listen......hear the rain
*..Amaoto means "the sound of rain" in Japanese
