《Hands Like Rain》歌词

[00:00:01] Hands Like Rain - James Mcmurtry

[00:00:11] Slowly crawling 'cross the floor

[00:00:14] Comes a shadow through the window

[00:00:17] From the house next door

[00:00:21] The specks dancing

[00:00:22] In the last of the light

[00:00:25] One more evening passing

[00:00:30] She walked on tiptoes

[00:00:32] On a gravel bar

[00:00:35] Wet skin pale as the evening star

[00:00:40] The North Platte winding like a silver eel

[00:00:44] Hands like rain on August fields

[00:00:49] Hands like rain

[00:00:51] Falling soft

[00:00:54] To ease the drought inside

[00:00:59] As memory fades

[00:01:01] Not much remains

[00:01:03] But hands like rain

[00:01:09] Now I stand on stiff legs

[00:01:11] And I clutch the cane

[00:01:14] And I search the sky for a sign of rain

[00:01:17] As if it matters

[00:01:20] As if it makes a damn

[00:01:24] Just an old man's habit

[00:01:29] Down the street

[00:01:31] The schoolboys play

[00:01:33] Dime novel heroes from another day

[00:01:38] Who now are nothing more than faceless names

[00:01:43] And a nameless face with hands like rain

[00:01:47] Hands like rain

[00:01:50] Falling soft

[00:01:53] To ease the drought inside

[00:01:58] As memory fades

[00:02:00] Not much remains

[00:02:02] But hands like rain

[00:02:07] We'd run by night

[00:02:10] And we'd hide by day

[00:02:13] So the papers used to say

[00:02:17] On stolen horses and borrowed time

[00:02:22] Dancing girls and brandy wine

[00:02:26] I can hear them calling

[00:02:31] They're calling me

[00:02:35] I can here them calling

[00:02:38] But I still can't see

[00:02:42] Now can't see

[00:02:45] Hands like rain

[00:02:48] Falling soft

[00:02:51] To ease the drought inside

[00:02:56] As memory fades

[00:02:58] Not much remains

[00:03:00] But hands like rain

[00:03:10] Life and legend are an awkward pair

[00:03:16] And there ain't much magic anywhere

[00:03:20] Except in moments we can't often steal

[00:03:25] Hands like rain on August fields

[00:03:29] Hands like rain

[00:03:32] Falling soft

[00:03:35] To ease the drought inside

[00:03:39] As memory fades

[00:03:42] Not much remains

[00:03:44] But hands like rain

[00:03:49] Hands like rain

[00:03:51] Falling soft

[00:03:54] To ease the drought inside

[00:03:59] As memory fades

[00:04:01] Not much remains

[00:04:03] But hands like rain
