Steve Forbert - Lookin' At The River In The Rain Lyrics

Steve Forbert Lyrics

"Lookin' At The River In The Rain"

Lightnin' strikin' up and down the point
Lights go dim in Lonnie's pier point joint
Satisfaction's near the window pane
Just lookin' at the river in the rain

Got some things I'm 'sposed to do tonight
If I don't though it'll be alright
Got an answer if I must explain
I was lookin' at the river in the rain

Well, the girl I gave my name to claims I'm crazy
She can talk like that 'cause she's completely sane

Back in town she got her bags and packed
Said she's leavin' and she wont be back
Let 'er hustle for that ev'ning plane
I'll keep lookin' at the river in the rain

Well, the girl I gave my name to claims I'm crazy
She can talk like that 'cause she's completely sane

Guess I'll sit an' get completely gone
Hope it thundershowers all night long
All I ask is I can please remain
Just lookin' at the river in the rain
Just lookin' at the river in the rain
