Endlessly (Rainsong)

from Ignition: Arson Anthems by Manko

about

A demo of a song I wrote in my tent at FloydFest one mopey morning when it just rained and rained and rained. Some version of this will probably wind up in Dance Afire's "Ain't Got A Barrel Of Money" pyropera.

lyrics

It's been raining all morning like it rained all night
I'm looking at my life through grey rainy light
I'm blessed but I'm restlessly questing for more
And I guess that's a suggestion 'bout whatever I'm here for

But I wouldn't mind the rain if I had the right company
Someone to share these rainy days with me
Just wanna fall in love with someone who could maybe fall in love with me
And we could lie around in love and listen to the rain
Endlessly

Seven billion people, should be enough
And finding the best ones is never that tough
They got stars in their eyes, they've got stories to tell
And they're always in love with somebody else...

I know they say in each lonely life a whole lotta rain must fall
And fall, 'til you're sick of it all
I wouldn't mind that part if I could find one true heart
Who thought that I was the guy
To make her swoon, smile and sigh

You don't look for rainbows on any old day
And looking for love seems to work the same way
You can't make it happen, it comes when it comes
So I'm watching the skies and hanging by my thumbs...
