Rain is coming


i hear them say that the rain she is coming
bring us water down from the sky
oh, the rain, she is coming
and no, sir, i don't why

some say the lightning and thunder is coming
children crying and holding on
some say the weather knows your number
pretty soon we'll be called upon

(chorus)
look around and listen, listen closely
look around--you can't help but see
look around and dance in the glory
 it's the one thing that still is free
 
i hear them say the snow, she is coming
falling down into great reveries
some say the snow, yes, she is coming
falling down on you and me

 rivers flowing, old trees are falling
rivers rise beyond the banks
you and me, we just keep going
holding your hand i just say thanks

(chorus)
look around and listen, listen closely
look around--you can't help but see
look around and dance in the glory
 it's the one thing that still is free

i hear them say that the rain she is coming
bring us water down from the sky
oh, the rain, she is coming
and no, sir, i don't why
