| Psychopath Registered: Sep. 00  | Look out of any window Any morning, any day Maybe the sun is shining Birds are winging, no rain is falling from a heavy sky What do you want me to do To do for you to see you through? For this is all a dream we dreamed one afternoon long ago Walk out of any doorway Feel your way like the day before Maybe you'll find direction Around some corner where it's been waiting to meet you What do you want me to do To watch for you while you're sleeping? Then please don't be surprised when you find me dreaming too Look into any eyes You find by you; you can see clear to another day Maybe been seen before Through other eyes on other days while going home What do you want me to do To do for you to see you through? It's all a dream we dreamed one afternoon long ago Walk into splintered sunlight Inch your way through dead dreams to another land Maybe you're tired and broken Your tongue is twisted with words half spoken and thoughts unclear What do you want me to do To do for you, to see you through? A box of rain will ease the pain and love will see you through Just a box of rain, wind and water Believe it if you need it, if you don't just pass it on Sun and shower, wind and rain In and out the window like a moth before a flame And it's just a box of rain, I don't know who put it there Believe it if you need it or leave it if you dare And it's just a box of rain, or a ribbon for your hair Such a long, long time to be gone and a short time to be there  "Like, Mother, it's my life ok...so if i want to live on a beach and walk around naked..." | ||||

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Jan. 01 | I woke today... And felt your side of bed The covers were still warm where you'd been layin'. You were gone... My heart was filled with dread. You might not be sleepin' here again It's alright, 'cause I love you. And that's not gonna change. Run me round, make me hurt again and again. But I'll still sing you love songs Written in the letters of your name. And brave the storm to come, For it surely looks like rain. Did you ever waken to the sound Of street cats makin' love And guess from their cries You were listenin' to a fight? Well, you know... Hate's just the last thing they're thinkin' of. They're only trying to make it through the night. It's alright, 'cause I love you. And that's not gonna change. Run me round, make me hurt again and again. But I'll still sing you love songs Written in the letters of your name. And brave the storm to come, For it surely looks like rain. I only want to hold you. I don't want to tie you down. Or fence you in the lines I might have drawn. It's just that I've gotten used to Havin' you around. My landscape would be empty If you were gone.  | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Aug. 00 | (edited to reflect the rain theme of this thread... duh) :) Mission in the Rain :) I turn and walk away then I come 'round again It looks as though tomorrow I'll do pretty much the same. I must turn down your offer but I'd like to ask a break You know I'm ready to give everything for anything I take. Someone called my name you know I turned around to see It was midnight in the Mission and the bells were not for me. Come again, walking along in the Mission in the rain, Come again, walking along in the Mission in the rain, Ten years ago, I walked this street my dreams were riding tall Tonight I would be thankful Lord, for any dream at all. Some folks would be happy just to have one dream come true But everything you gather is just more that you can lose. Come again, walking along in the Mission in the rain, Come again, walking along in the Mission in the rain, All the things I planned to do I only did half way Tomorrow will be Sunday born of rainy Saturday. There's some satisfaction in the San Francisco rain No matter what comes down the Mission always looks the same. Come again, walking along in the Mission in the rain.

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Dec. 00 | A prize for who can guess this band :) The night is growing dark From somewhere deep within It shelters like an ark That always takes you in The barmaid walks on over And pours another round For a lost soul at the corner Who prays he's never found And the mind goes numb Until it's feeling no pain And the soul cries out For a handful of rain Wash your women In your Whiskey When your future's In the past And your staring Up at heaven From the bottom Of a glass And you need some insulation From the years you've Had and lost And you feel the perspiration As you're adding up the cost And the night rolls on Like a slow moving train And the soul cries out There's a land beyond the living There's a land beyond the dead If it's true that God's forgiving Of the lives that we had led In the distance there's a thunder And the air is thick and warm And the patrons watch with wonder The approaching of the storm And the night rolls on Like a slow moving train And the soul cries out For a handful of rain There's an old man in the corner And he's smoking all the time An the smoke is drifting upward and it's Twisting in my Twisting in my Mind In my mind The whiskey's getting deeper And I use it like a moat There's a blues man in the distance and he's Lost inside his Note His note The night is growing dark From somewhere deep within It shelters like an ark That always takes you in And the night rolls on Like a slow moving train And the soul cries out For an handful of rain  We Have Not YetBegun To Fight NEVER FORGET!!! | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: Sep. 00 | "Fire And Rain" James Taylor Just yesterday morning they let me know you were gone Susanne the plans they made put an end to you I walked out this morning and I wrote down this song I just can't remember who to send it to I've seen fire and I've seen rain I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend But I always thought that I'd see you again Won't you look down upon me, Jesus You've got to help me make a stand You've just got to see me through another day My body's aching and my time is at hand And I won't make it any other way Oh, I've seen fire and I've seen rain I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend But I always thought that I'd see you again Been walking my mind to an easy time my back turned towards the sun Lord knows when the cold wind blows it'll turn your head around Well, there's hours of time on the telephone line to talk about things to come Sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground Oh, I've seen fire and I've seen rain I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend But I always thought that I'd see you, baby, one more time again, now Thought I'd see you one more time again There's just a few things coming my way this time around, now Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you fire and rain, now "Like, Mother, it's my life ok...so if i want to live on a beach and walk around naked..." | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Dec. 00 | No Rain - Blind Melon All I can say is that my life is pretty plain I like watchin' the puddles gather rain And all I can do is just pour some tea for two and speak my point of view But it's not sane, It's not sane I just want some one to say to me I'll always be there when you wake Ya know I'd like to keep my cheeks dry today So stay with me and I'll have it made And I don't understand why I sleep all day And I start to complain that there's no rain And all I can do is read a book to stay awake And it rips my life away, but it's a great escape escape...escape...escape... All I can say is that my life is pretty plain ya don't like my point of view ya think I'm insane Its not sane...it's not sane. We Have Not YetBegun To Fight NEVER FORGET!!! | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jun. 01 | Collective Soul Today she dresses For the change she's facing now And the storm that's raging A safe haven she has found She doesn't care What the prophets say anymore For the love she had She has no more So she gathers rain She gathers rain To rinse away all her guilt and pain She gathers rain She gathers rain To wash and cleanse and make her whole again Her imagination Has started stretching wide And her new conviction No longer will she hide She's not branded When prophets speak words of fire The same love she gives She requires So she gathers rain She gathers rain To rinse away all her guilt and pain She gathers rain She gathers rain To wash and cleanse and make her whole again  | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Aug. 00 | Winter rain, now tell me why, Summers fade, and roses die. The answer came; the wind and rain. Golden hills, now veiled in grey, Summer leaves have blown away Now what remains? The wind and rain. And like a desert spring, my lover comes and spreads her wings, Knowing, Like a song that's born to soar the sky, Flowing, Flowing 'til the waters all are dry, Growing, the loving in her eyes. Circle songs and sands of time, and seasons will end in tumbled rhyme, and little change, the wind and rain. And like a desert spring, my lover comes and spreads her wings, Knowing, Like a song that's born to soar the sky, Flowing, Flowing 'til the rivers all are dry, Growing, the loving in her eyes. Winter grey and falling rain, we'll see summer come again, Darkness falls and seasons change (gonna happen every time). Same old friends the wind and rain, Summers fade and roses die, You'll see summer come again, Like a song that's born to soar the sky. | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | how the impending cold, rain and snow... Well she's coming down the stairs, combing back her yellow hair And I ain't gonna be treated this-a-way This-a-way And I ain't gonna be treated this-a-way Well she went up to her room and she sang a faithful tune And I'm going where those chilly winds don't blow Winds don't blow And I'm going where those chilly winds don't blow Well I married me a wife, she's been trouble all my life Run me out in the cold rain and snow Rain and snow Run me out in the cold rain and snow  I hope he tells us to burn our pants...these things are driving me nuts! Hold on there maestro, there's a "New" Mexico? | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | JTR I drink you up, For every drop of you is sacred. Every drop I drink you up. You fill my cup, The way you laugh. Eyes of a child, Lean on me, you fill me up, You make me love, So unconditionally, Generous to me, you give me love And break my heart. Slip, you fall, I pick you up and dust you off, You break my heart. Rain, rain, rain down on me, Again and again, Rain down on me. Take all you want, And only hope can I, you won't deny, Your love for me, my love. No, don't cry, if it's too high, I lift you up, we'll make it, make it. When I was oh so tired, You come along to wake me, Time and time again and again, With a smile you save me child Oh, oh, oh... Rain, rain, rain down on me, Again and again, Rain down on me. Look, we play our cards, And I question by the grace of what, We play our cards at all. Come fill me up, oh, fill me love when I'm empty. When I'm all dried up No, don't cry, if it's too high, I'll lift you up, we'll make it, make it. Oh, I was so so tired, You come along to wake me, wake me. Time and time, again and again, With a smile you save me child. Oh, oh, oh... Rain, rain, rain down on me, Again and again, Rain down on me. Rain, rain down on me...  I don't know why I care so much, when I shouldn't care at all | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: Mar. 01 | When I look into your eyes I can see a love restrained But darlin' when I hold you Don't you know I feel the same 'Cause nothin' lasts forever And we both know hearts can change And it's hard to hold a candle In the cold November rain We've been through this auch a long long time Just tryin' to kill the pain But lovers always come and lovers always go An no one's really sure who's lettin' go today Walking away If we could take the time to lay it on the line I could rest my head Just knowin' that you were mine All mine So if you want to love me then darlin' don't refrain Or I'll just end up walkin' In the cold November rain Do you need some time...on your own Do you need some time...all alone Everybody needs some time... on their own Don't you know you need some time...all alone I know it's hard to keep an open heart When even friends seem out to harm you But if you could heal a broken heart Wouldn't time be out to charm you Sometimes I need some time...on my own Sometimes I need some time...all alone Everybody needs some time... on their own Don't you know you need some time...all alone And when your fears subside And shadows still remain I know that you can love me When there's no one left to blame So never mind the darkness We still can find a way 'Cause nothin' lasts forever Even cold November rain Don't ya think that you need somebody Don't ya think that you need someone Everybody needs somebody You're not the only one You're not the only one | ||||

| Hanger-On Registered: Oct. 01 | Kind surprised no one though of this already: Only love Can make it rain The way the beach is kissed by the sea. Only love Can make it rain Like the sweat of lovers' Laying in the fields. Love, Reign o'er me. Love, Reign o'er me, rain on me. Only love Can bring the rain That makes you yearn to the sky. Only love Can bring the rain That falls like tears from on high. Love, Reign o'er me. Love, Reign o'er me, rain on me. On the dry and dusty road The nights we spend apart alone I need to get back home to cool cool rain. The nights are hot and black as ink I can't sleep and I lay and I think Oh God, I need a drink of cool cool rain. Love, Reign o'er me. Love, Reign o'er me, rain on me. | ||||

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Oct. 00 | Why Does It Always Rain On Me? Travis I can't sleep tonight Everybody saying everything's alright Still I can't close my eyes I'm seeing a tunnel at the end of all these lights Sunny days Where have you gone? I get the strangest feeling you belong Why does it always rain on me? Is it because I lied when I was seventeen? Why does it always rain on me? Even when the sun is shining I can't avoid the lightning I can't stand myself I'm being held up by invisible men Still life on a shelf when I got my mind on something else Sunny days Where have you gone? I get the strangest feeling you belong Why does it always rain on me? Is it because I lied when I was seventeen? Why does it always rain on me? Even when the sun is shining I can't avoid the lightning Oh, where did the blue skies go? And why is it raining so? It's so cold I can't sleep tonight Everybody saying everything's alright Still I can't close my eyes I'm seeing a tunnel at the end of all these lights Sunny days Where have you gone? I get the strangest feeling you belong Why does it always rain on me? Is it because I lied when I was seventeen? Why does it always rain on me? Even when the sun is shining I can't avoid the lightning Oh, where did the blue skies go? And why is it raining so? It's so cold Why does it always rain on me? Why does it always rain...
