Feels Like Rain

John Hiatt 
recording 1993 
from 
Feels Like Rain (Silvertine 41498) 
Down here the river, meets the sea 
And in the sticky heat I feel ya' open up to me 
Love comes out of nowhere baby, just like a hurricane 
And it feels like rain 
And it feels like rain 
Lying here, underneath the stars right next to you 
And I'm wondering who you are and 
How do you do? 
How do you do, baby? 
The clouds roll in across the moon 
And the wind howls out your name 
And it feels like rain 
And it feels like rain 
We never going to make that bridge tonight baby 
Across lake Ponchartrain 
And it feels like rain 
And it feels like rain 
So batten down the hatch baby 
And leave your heart up your sleeve 
It looks like we're in for stormy weather, 
That ain't no cause for us to leave 
Just lay here, in my arms 
Let it wash away the pain 
And it feels like rain 
And it feels like rain
