An Unexpected Rain Lyrics
First time I saw you, back in 1982
An LA bar, I've come so far in my Kansas dancing shoes,
I'm just a singer and I'm lookin' for a song
Do you wanna sing along?
Two Greyhounds later, and I'm feelin' alright
I've got to have you and it must be tonight
Come on back to my place, well it's really just a room
But I'll be makin' some money soon
Goodbye and thank you
Oh - my number, yeah, please phone
Two or three weekends on the 405 alone
You stay come on and stay
And when you sing down at the bar it will not be so far
And I tried to do my best
I never meant to hurt no one
I was waitin' for my break that I knew one day would come
And I'd plug in my guitar, and I'd look out across the room
And I'd dig into my heart, and I'd try to sing the truth
And I know I did my best
I never meant to hurt no one
As I recall
Back in 1982
I never said goodbye or why
I just left a note for you
Then one night I saw you, across the road, across the dark
A shameful spear into my heart
Your look was haunting
An unexpected pain
I am so sorry for the Unexpected Rain
The sadness that you kissed
The fresh scars on your wrist
I can't make it go away
And I tried to do my best
I never meant to hurt no one
I was waitin' for my break that I knew one day would come
And I'd plug in my guitar
And I'd look out across the room
And I'd dig into my heart
And I'd try to sing the truth
And I know I did my best, I never meant to hurt no one, no one, no one
Goodnight ladies, goodnight, I'm gonna leave you now
Goodnight ladies, goodnight, I'm gonna leave you now
Sleeptight
An LA bar, I've come so far in my Kansas dancing shoes,
I'm just a singer and I'm lookin' for a song
Do you wanna sing along?
I've got to have you and it must be tonight
Come on back to my place, well it's really just a room
But I'll be makin' some money soon
Oh - my number, yeah, please phone
Two or three weekends on the 405 alone
You stay come on and stay
And when you sing down at the bar it will not be so far
I never meant to hurt no one
I was waitin' for my break that I knew one day would come
And I'd plug in my guitar, and I'd look out across the room
And I'd dig into my heart, and I'd try to sing the truth
And I know I did my best
I never meant to hurt no one
Back in 1982
I never said goodbye or why
I just left a note for you
Then one night I saw you, across the road, across the dark
A shameful spear into my heart
An unexpected pain
I am so sorry for the Unexpected Rain
The fresh scars on your wrist
I can't make it go away
I never meant to hurt no one
I was waitin' for my break that I knew one day would come
And I'd plug in my guitar
And I'd look out across the room
And I'd dig into my heart
And I'd try to sing the truth
And I know I did my best, I never meant to hurt no one, no one, no one
Goodnight ladies, goodnight, I'm gonna leave you now
