Lookin' At The Rain - David Munyon

You walked back from the mini-mart said why the long face

Squinted up your eyes tried to make me laugh too late

I was off in another world where time won't erase

Just sittin' here looking at the rain

We met in a bar while on leave on the coast

You were wearing your class A's with that issue wool coat

Your saucer cap was titled back on your head

Just sittin' there looking at the rain

Almost made touch down didn't we

Almost won the game

Waiting the whole life

For another chace again

I met you hiking on U S 92

I was stepping oft cause I kinda lost my shoes

And all of those cars and trucks looking at us too

Both of us standing there whistling the Blues

Almost made touch down didn't we

Almost won the game

Waiting the whole life

For another chace again

Remember that cafe on the islands of Crete

The manager chased us all the way down the street

Said we were surely welcomed then you fell in love

Spent the rest of the midnight lookin' up above

You quit reading papers in 1972

Why read about it there's nothing I can do

We never did hear of the Sergeant Major making the change

We were kinda lost there

Lookin' at the rain

We were kinda lost there

Lookin' at the rain

We were kinda lost there

Lookin' at the rain
