Down here the river, meets the sea And in the sticky heat I feel ya' open up to me Love comes out of nowhere baby, just like a hurricane And it feels like rain And it feels like rain Lying here, underneath the stars right next to you And I'm wondering who you are and, how do you do? How do you do, baby? The clouds roll in across the moon, and the wind howls out your name And it feels like rain And it feels like rain We never going to make that bridge tonight baby Across lake Ponchartrain And it feels like rain And it feels like rain So batten down the hatch baby, and leave your heart up your sleeve It looks like we're in for stormy weather, that ain't no cause for us to leave Just lay here, in my arms, let it wash away the pain And it feels like rain And it feels like rain
