Joni Mitchell - Eastern Rain Lyrics
Rain comes from the east one nightWe watch it comeTo hang like beaded curtainsTill the morning sunWater dripping from our clothesYou with raindrops on your noseAsk me sadly please dont go away now.Till the rain is done, I sayIll stay now.Rain outside but inside we dont mind at allShadows by the fire slowly climb and fallKisses fade and leave no traceWhispers vanish into spaceThe dawn will send me on a chase to nowhereWhy cry as if I were the first to go thereAnd I know I shouldnt be hereYes, I know I should go homeBut that eastern rain drones in my brainAnd Im so all alone, so all aloneMorning comes up from the eastWe watch it comeAnd far away now rolls the ancient rain gods drumYou with daybreak in your eyesAfraid to speak for telling liesI watch you search for some reply to lend meBut when the rain is doneTheres no pretendingAnd I know I shouldnt be hereYes, I know I should go homeBut that eastern rain drones in my brainAnd Im so all alone, so all alone
