Expecting Rain

Kick your shoes off, do not fear
Bring that bottle over here

I must have been mad, I never knew what I had
I threw it all away!

And if my thought dreams could be seen...

It's the right time of the season
Somebody there always cared

New York Times said it was the coldest winter in seventeen years
I didn't feel so cold then.

The wind it was howlin’ and the snow was outrageous
We chopped through the night and we chopped through the dawn
When he died I was hopin’ that it wasn’t contagious
But I made up my mind that I had to go on

Please see that my grave is kept clean

Now I'm all worn down by weeping

If not for you
My sky would fall
Rain would gather too
Without your love I’d be nowhere at all
I’d be lost if not for you
And you know it’s true....

But oh mama, ain't you gonna miss your best friend now?

Sugar Baby get on down the road
You ain’t got no brains, no how
You went years without me
Might as well keep going now

Maybe she’ll pick him out again, how long must he wait
Once more for a simple twist of fate

Tomorrow Is A Long Time

...tonight I'll be staying here with you.

Where are you tonight?

In the pale moonlight

I know the kinds of things you like....
Won’t you meet me out in the moonlight alone?

We never did too much talkin anyway.

Ain't talking, just walking...

She talks to all her servants about man and God and law.

We living by the golden rule, whoever got the gold rules.

Have you got some unfinished business?
Is there something holding you back?

She don't look back.

And I don't even notice she's gone. Salute her when her birthday comes!

On her twenty-second birthday, she's already an old maid.
