Hands Like Rain - James Mcmurtry[00:00:01]
Slowly crawling 'cross the floor[00:00:11]
Comes a shadow through the window[00:00:14]
From the house next door[00:00:17]
The specks dancing[00:00:21]
In the last of the light[00:00:22]
One more evening passing[00:00:25]
She walked on tiptoes[00:00:30]
On a gravel bar[00:00:32]
Wet skin pale as the evening star[00:00:35]
The North Platte winding like a silver eel[00:00:40]
Hands like rain on August fields[00:00:44]
Hands like rain[00:00:49]
Falling soft[00:00:51]
To ease the drought inside[00:00:54]
As memory fades[00:00:59]
Not much remains[00:01:01]
But hands like rain[00:01:03]
Now I stand on stiff legs[00:01:09]
And I clutch the cane[00:01:11]
And I search the sky for a sign of rain[00:01:14]
As if it matters[00:01:17]
As if it makes a damn[00:01:20]
Just an old man's habit[00:01:24]
Down the street[00:01:29]
The schoolboys play[00:01:31]
Dime novel heroes from another day[00:01:33]
Who now are nothing more than faceless names[00:01:38]
And a nameless face with hands like rain[00:01:43]
Hands like rain[00:01:47]
Falling soft[00:01:50]
To ease the drought inside[00:01:53]
As memory fades[00:01:58]
Not much remains[00:02:00]
But hands like rain[00:02:02]
We'd run by night[00:02:07]
And we'd hide by day[00:02:10]
So the papers used to say[00:02:13]
On stolen horses and borrowed time[00:02:17]
Dancing girls and brandy wine[00:02:22]
I can hear them calling[00:02:26]
They're calling me[00:02:31]
I can here them calling[00:02:35]
But I still can't see[00:02:38]
Now can't see[00:02:42]
Hands like rain[00:02:45]
Falling soft[00:02:48]
To ease the drought inside[00:02:51]
As memory fades[00:02:56]
Not much remains[00:02:58]
But hands like rain[00:03:00]
Life and legend are an awkward pair[00:03:10]
And there ain't much magic anywhere[00:03:16]
Except in moments we can't often steal[00:03:20]
Hands like rain on August fields[00:03:25]
Hands like rain[00:03:29]
Falling soft[00:03:32]
To ease the drought inside[00:03:35]
As memory fades[00:03:39]
Not much remains[00:03:42]
But hands like rain[00:03:44]
Hands like rain[00:03:49]
Falling soft[00:03:51]
To ease the drought inside[00:03:54]
As memory fades[00:03:59]
Not much remains[00:04:01]
But hands like rain[00:04:03]
