Walk Between Raindrops Lyrics

Lyric discussion by BabyM 

Cover art for Walk Between Raindrops lyrics by Donald Fagen

In the third verse, I think it's actually "farther shore"--a reference to the afterlife. He's remembering a day with his now-deceased love, looking forward to the day he dies and they are reunited.

My Interpretation

I think it’s a straightforward nostalgic love song, to be interpreted as is. I always liked this song and had no idea it was Donald Fagen till I bought Nightfly. Been a fan of the Dan for years and this album, while different, is amazingly good.
