Bruce Hornsby & the Range (+) Mandolin Rain
The song came and went
Like the times that
we spent
Hiding out from the rain
under the carnival tent
I laughed and she'd smile
It would last for awhile
You don't know what
you got
Till you lose it all again
Listen to the
mandolin rain
Listen to the music on
the lake
Listen to my heart break
every time she runs away
Listen to the banjo wind
a sad song drifting low
Listen to the tears flow
Down my face as she
turns to go
A cool evening wind
Lstening the blue
grass band
takes the chill
From the air till they
play the last song
I'll do my time
Keeping you off my mind
But there's moments
that I find
I'm not feeling so strong
Listen to the mandolin
rain
Listen to the music
on the lake
Listen to my heart break
every time she runs away
Listen to the banjo wind
a sad song drifting low
Listen to the tears flow
Down my face as she
turns to go
Running down by the
lakeshore
She did love the sound
of a summer storm
It played on the lake
like a mandolin
Now it's washing her
away once again
Listen to the mandolin
rain
Listen to the music
on the lake
Listen to my heart break
every time she runs away
Listen to the banjo wind
a sad song drifting low
Listen to the tears flow
Down my face as she
turns to go
The boat's steaming in
I watched the sidewheel
spin and I
think about her when
I hear that whistle blow
I can't change my mind
I knew all the time
she'd go
But that's a choice
I made long ago
Listen to the mandolin
rain
Listen to the music
on the lake
Listen to my heart break
every time she runs away
Listen to the banjo wind
a sad song drifting low
Listen to the tears flow
Down my face as she
turns to go
Listen to the tears roll
down my face as she
turns to go
Listen to the tears roll
down my face as she
turns to go
Listen to the mandolin
rain...
