"Red Hook Rain" lyrics

"Red Hook Rain"

It's raining
Raining on me
I can see you painting
Pictures of a naked memory

We're animals in action
Chemical reaction
You did a number on me
We could feel it brewing
Right over Newark
Traffic on the turnpike
We couldn't leave

Cause I would always run away
When a wind gets turnin'
My wheels start burnin'
But the world we love ain't safe
We're born this way
Baby

You and me, we had a storm to chase
Dancin' 'round each other like a hurricane and
I still hear that Red Hook Rain can you hear it too?
They might see it when the skies are grey
But I can feel it coming on a sunny day
Yeah, can you feel the Red Hook Rain like I feel it too?

Baby, I've been counting stallions in the sea
Lately, I can hear 'em talking back to me

Cause we're animals in action
Absolute attraction
11231 come find me
We could feel it brewing
Right over Newark
Traffic on the turnpike
We couldn't leave

But I was taught to run away
When a wind gets turnin'
My wheels start burnin'
But the world we love ain't safe
We're here to stay
Baby

You and me we had a storm to chase
Dancin' 'round each other like a hurricane and
I still hear that Red Hook Rain can you hear it too?
They might see it when the skies are grey
But I can feel it coming on a sunny day
Yeah, can you feel the Red Hook Rain like I feel it too?

Baby
You caught my eye from a mile away
A vision of a tornado born and raised in the city
Maybe
They only see what they wanna see
They never felt the thunder from the love that we made
In the Red Hook Rain

You and me we had a storm to chase
Spinning around like two hurricanes
There ain't nobody to blame
Love is a weatherman's game
Even in another time or place
I could drown happy
Cause I know I'm gonna see your face
In the Red Hook Rain
New York
Can you feel it baby?

You and me we had a storm to chase
Dancin' 'round each other like a hurricane and
I still hear that Red Hook Rain can you hear it too?
They might see it when the skies are grey
But I can feel it coming on a sunny day
Yeah, can you feel the Red Hook Rain like I feel it too?

Baby (I feel it)
You caught my eye from a mile away
A vision of a tornado born and raised in the city
Maybe (I feel it)
They only saw the lightning babe
They never felt the thunder from the love that we made
In the Red Hook Rain
