about

A rainy serendipitous meeting on the famous St. Charles Street car

lyrics

I WAS STANDING ON A CORNER ONE MORNING
IN THE CITY OF NEW ORLEANS
WHEN SHE CAME ON LIKE A STORM WITHOUT WARNING
I FELT A WARM RAIN FALL OVER ME

“COME OVER HERE”, I SAID SOFTLY
“I THINK WE CAN STAY A BIT MORE DRY”
WITH A SLOW TWIRL SHE LOOKED STRAIGHT UP
AND LET THE RAIN FALL IN HER EYES

CAME THE OLD STREETCAR WE WAS WAITIN’ FOR
SOAKIN’ WET WE CLIMBED ABOARD
SHE SAT DOWN AND PULLED A WINDOW UP
I WATCHED THE OTHERS SHUFFLE
THROUGH THE DOOR

THEN SHE TURNED AND ASKED THE FOLKS BEHIND HER,
“IS THIS TOO MUCH FOR Y’ALL?”
THEY JUST SMILED AND SAID, “NO NOT AT ALL,
IN FACT WE LOVE THE RAINFALL”

THIS MY DARLING IS REALLY ME
AND IT NEVER FEELS FALSE
THE RAIN MY DARLING FEELS RIGHT TO ME
LIKE AN OLD CAJUN WALTZ

AS THE GARDEN DISTRICT WENT FLOATING BY
AND THE WARM RAIN KEPT SNEAKING IN
I FELT LIKE I WAS FINALLY ALIVE THOUGH I THOUGHT
I’D HAVE TO LEARN TO BREATH AGAIN

SO DROP-BY-DROP LIKE THE RAIN I FELL
EVEN NOW I RECALL THE TIME
EVERY SIGHT, EVERY SMELL
AS THAT SWEET RAIN FELL
AND WE ROAD TO THE END OF THE LINE

SO IT’S FARE THEE WELL MY DARLING ONE
I DON’T KNOW IF WE’LL EVER MEET AGAIN
AND DO YOU LOVE ME TRUE
AND CAN I BE WITH YOU
OR HAVE I SQUANDERED
EVERY CHANCE I EVER HAD?

WE MIGHT OF FOUND A MOMENTS PEACE
LIKE ONE PRECIOUS DROP OF RAIN
BUT MY TONGUE BECAME TIED
BY THE TIME I TRIED
SO I SMILED AND SAID, “GOODBYE” IN VAIN

THIS MY DARLING IS REALLY ME
AND IT NEVER FEELS FALSE
THE RAIN MY DARLING FEELS RIGHT TO ME
LIKE AN OLD CAJUN WALTZ
