The Grateful Dead
Looks Like Rain (Live in Cairo, Egypt, September 15, 1978)
[Verse 1]
I woke today, felt your side of the bed
The covers were still warm where you'd been layin’
You were gone, oh gone, my heart was filled with dread
You might not be sleeping here again

[Chorus]
But it's alright 'cause I love you
And that’s not gonna change
Run me around and make me hurt again and again
But I'll still sing you love songs, written in the letters of your name
And brave the storm to come
For it surely looks like rain

[Verse 2]
Did you ever waken to the sound of street cats making love?
You guess from the cries you were listening to a fight
Well, you know, oh oh, hate's just the last thing they're thinking of
They're only tryin' to make it through the night

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
I only want to hold you, I don't want to tie you down
Or fit you in the lines I might've drawn
It’s just that I, oh I, have gotten used to havin’ you around
My landscape would be empty, if you were gone
[Chorus]
But it's alright ’cause I love you
And that's not gonna change
Run me around and make me hurt again and again
But I'll still sing you love songs, written in the letter of your name
And brave the storm to come
For it surely looks like rain

[Outro]
Brave the storm to come, 'cause it looks like rain
Ooh, here comes the rain
Ooh, here comes the rain, oh
(Brave the storm to come)
Here comes the rain
(Brave the storm to come)
Yes, I believe it’s gonna rain, 'cause here comes the rain
Here come the pain
'Cause it looks like rain and it feels like rain, oh
Here come the rain
I believe it's gonna rain today
Said it looks like rain and it feels like rain, oh
Here come the rain
Yes, I believe it's gonna rain today
(Brave the storm to come)
Said it looks like rain and it feels like rain, oh, oh
Here come the rain
(Brave the storm to come)
Whole world's gonna rain
Said it looks like rain and it feels like rain, oh, oh
Here comes the rain
(Brave the storm to come)
Yes, I believe it's gonna rain today
Oh, and it looks like rain and it feels like rain, oh, oh, oh, oh
Here comes the rain
Here comes the rain (Brave the storm to come)
Here comes the rain
Said it looks like rain and it feels like rain, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Here comes the rain
