Rain Song from October Moon by John Rasmussen

Tracklist

3.	Rain Song	4:45

Lyrics

Hill’s all damp and nightbirds sound
Spider spinning by the starlight
Love can take me to the ground
Now the rain’s come

Season’s changing at its will
Each new day’s a road to follow
Harvest moon is coming still
Now the rain’s come

Chorus
(Now the rain’s come, washing all our sins away
and the creeks run, til the rivers dance and play
Now the drought’s done we all live another day
Now we’re all one, spider’s webs spun
Now the rain’s come)

I left my city lights behind
Left my pavement to the wind
Watched the spider change his mind
Watched the rain come

(Chorus)

Listen children sing your song
Weave your web and spin your fancy
Let your dreams help you along
Watch the rain come

(Chorus)
