"Like Rain" lyrics - NILS LOFGREN

I'm gonna calm things down for just a second but we'll get back to rock 'n' roll soon

I saw you last morning I cried my sins out
You were rain and I washed away
Baby when I saw you
Girl when I saw you
I could only think of one thing to say

I seem to meet the kind of friends
I meet the kind of friends that always seem to end
And I laugh when I start to say
Oh God I love you like rain, darling

You're always falling just a falling to pass my way
I wander like the clouds when it comes to loving
This lonely heart it sure ain't nothing new
I was told by a wise man in my soul

She's gonna always stop loving you
She loves me in the morning
Leaves me in the evening
I'm just crying, I'm just crying, I'm just crying

She's got a hold on me
Don't think she's ever gonna let me be
I'm just crying in the morning light
It'd be better if she weren't so damn right

And it rains
I've got to run now I see the clouds a-rolling
I'm afraid it's gonna start to rain
When I fall asleep I dream of good things
But I always wake up the same

God I love you like rain
You're always falling just past my way
I meet the kind of friend that always end
I meet the kind of friend that always end
I meet the kind of friend that always end
I meet the kind of friends that always end
When I start
When I start to say
