Don’t Let The Weather Bring You Down

November rain is pouring, pouring down

As if the gods are crying all at once

And falling raindrops is the only sound

You have been hearing for what feels like months

We’ve all been hurt at some point in our lives

And these old wounds are achy during rain

As if a thousand tiny jagged knives

Stuck in your heart are driving you insane

All this rain – has been on for days

All this rain – nothing left but haze

All this rain – you feel like you could drown

Don’t let the weather bring you down

All this rain – bouncing off the roof

All this rain – frigid and aloof

All this rain – will engulf this town

Don’t let the weather bring you down

It would be lovely to forget the rain,

Sit by the fireplace with champagne on ice

I got no fireplace but I have champagne

Gas heat and candles could be just as nice

Why don’t you come and be with me tonight?

I’m just as lonely, carrying my pain

We will forget our individual plights

And leave it all behind the pouring rain

All this rain – has been on for days

All this rain – nothing left but haze

All this rain – you feel like you could drown

Don’t let the weather bring you down

All this rain – bouncing off the roof

All this rain – frigid and aloof

All this rain – will engulf this town

Don’t let the weather bring you down

We’ll cuddle up with my hands on your hips

We’ll shed our clothes warmed up from within

And you will touch my body with your lips

And I will kiss the velvet of your skin

And you’ll forget your sorrows and your tears

When your keen body shudders in release

And then the world will simply disappear

The rain will stop. And you will find your peace

All this rain – has been on for days

All this rain – nothing left but haze

All this rain – you feel like you could drown

Don’t let the weather bring you down

All this rain – bouncing off the roof

All this rain – frigid and aloof

All this rain – will engulf this town

Don’t let the weather bring you down
