sweet Rainy Day Friend - Dave Elder

sweet Rainy Day Friend Lyrics

There's something southern about you
that speaks an easy-going style
of Spanish Moss in bloom, lazy afternoons,
milk and honey running wild.
Let your hospitality shine through,
I ask you, honey child.
Be my sweet rainy-day friend.
Stay with me until I don't know when
the sun comes back again.
When I first saw you I got lost
in deep reflections in your eyes.
I saw the light was a starry Southern Cross
and your arms opened wide.
Now the sky can cry alone
because I'm going to come inside.
Be my sweet rainy-day friend...

For as long as I've been standing in the rain
it still hasn't washed my loneliness away.
Be my sweet rainy-day friend...
