Jason Howland - A Small Umbrella in the Rain lyrics

[Professor Bhaer, spoken] Jo, we are not at all alike We have our differences May I be blunt? [Jo, spoken] Be blunt, by all means [Professor Bhaer, sung] I think perhaps it looks like rain [Jo, sung] The sky gets bluer by the hour [Professor Bhaer] The water falls in little drops [Jo] That's why it's called a sun shower [Professor Bhaer] Ah, and now it stops [Jo, spoken] You were about to be blunt? [Professor Bhaer] If I say rain, then you say sun If I say yes, then you say no It seems before we start, we're done We even argue at “hello” If I say, share with me this small umbrella [Jo] I say who cares if I get wet? [Professor Bhaer] We are as different as the morning and the night [Jo] No, we're as different as the winter and the spring [Professor Bhaer] We always seem to fight [Jo] We disagree on everything [Professor Bhaer] And yet– You make me smile You make me laugh You make me care How can I explain Inside my heart I feel a pain When you're not there Though we're not at all alike You make me feel alive If we had that in common That one small thing in common Love could be like a small umbrella in the rain When people discover pa**ion They've come upon something rare This fervor they have in common Will shelter them anywhere Though the rest may be rough With such pa**ion to share I think we have more than enough Enough to make a marriage If we dare [Jo, spoken] You are proposing? [Professor Bhaer, spoken] No. Yes! Yes! I do not mean today, or tomorrow, or even next month In a year maybe, two years even I'm a patient man [Jo, sung] I won't be sweet, won't be demure [Professor Bhaer, sung] This I prefer, this I adore [Jo] I'll speak my mind, you can be sure [Professor Bhaer] I'll be enchanted to the core [Jo] If I say, "Let me share your small umbrella." [Professor Bhaer] I'll say, "Who cares if we get wet?" [Jo] We'll be as different as a husband and a wife [Professor Bhaer] No, we'll be as different as a woman and a man [Jo] We'll fight our way through life [Professor Bhaer] We'll disagree the best we can [Jo] And yet– [Jo & Professor Bhaer] You make me smile You make me laugh You make me care How can I explain Inside my heart I feel a pain When you're not there Though we're not at all alike You make me feel alive [Jo] Yes, we have that in common [Professor Bhaer] That one small thing in common [Jo & Professor Bhaer] Our love is like a small umbrella in the rain
