Story behind the song
The idea came up in a long thread on how to learn to sing blues vocals that maybe the forum should swap voices instead of instruments.
Lyrics
Down here the river meets the sea And in the sticky heat I feel you open up to me Love comes out of nowhere baby Just like a hurricane to me And it feels like rain And it feels like rain Lying underneath the stars right next to you Wondering who you are and how do you do (how do you do baby?) The clouds are rolling across the moon - the wind howlin howls out your name And it feels like rain (x2) We ain't gonna make that bridge tonight, baby Across Lake Pontchartrain And it feels like rain (x2) So batton down the hatch babe, and put your heart out on your sleeve It looks like we're in for stormy weather- But that ain't no cause for us to leave Just lie here in my arms and let it wash away the pain And it feels like rain (x2)
