The Rains Lyrics

[Verse 1: Henry Jamison]

And the trees blow around

In the gathering gale

As I loose my bloodhound

Upon the trail

And the rains came heavy from the north

And they were all outside

But I was not

I was in the kitchen looking out over the fields



[Chorus: Henry Jamison]

Standing in the doorway, the doorway

Watching the lightning and the trees sway

Singing “I me mine, I me mine”



[Verse 2: Henry Jamison]

And the rains came heavy from the north

They were in their little boats

But I was not

I was in bed

And I pillow bite

In my dream I sleepwalk

And I drink a beer

With Doris Day at the café down the block

So drink your beer

Drink your coffee

In the fear

Of the great nothing



[Chorus: Henry Jamison]

Standing in the doorway, the doorway

Watching the lightning and the trees sway

Singing “I me mine, I me mine”

Standing in the doorway, the doorway

Watching the lightning and the trees sway

Singing “I me mine, I me mine”
