From the recording Miles From Nowhere
Lyrics
“Everyone’s either making love or else expecting rain”
I listen to his voice against the windowpane
There’s no escaping the heat of July
And it looks like it’s gonna rain tonight
“Everyone’s either making love or else expecting rain”
As soon as I lay down I hear the water’s soft refrain
It makes no difference – might as well be dry
Because I feel like I’m raining inside
I ascend to the roof to escape the heat
The air is so humid I can barely breathe
So I lie down, not expecting to sleep
And the rain comes to my relief
“Everyone’s either making love or else expecting rain”
It’s been a hot summer so I cannot complain
I let the water wash over my eyes
Leave it to the water to make things right
I let the water wash over my eyes
Yes, you can expect it to rain tonight
