Songs for a rainy day
Sitting on the highway in a broken van
Thinking of you again
Guess I'll have to hitchhike to the station
With every step I see your face
Like a mirror lookin' back at me
Sayin' you're the only one
Makin' me feel I could survive
And so glad to be alive
Nowhere to run there's not a guitar to play
Messed up inside and it's been rainin' all day
Since you went away

Songs for a rainy day
Thank God for the Duchess of Gloucester,
She obliges all who accost her.
She welcomes the prick
Of Tom, Harry, or Dick,
Or Baldwin, or even Lord Astor.

Songs for a rainy day
'To seek the sacred river Alph
To walk the caves of ice
To break my fast on honeydew
And drink the milk of Paradise...'
I had heard the whispered tales of immortality
The deepest mystery
From an ancient book I took a clue
I scaled the frozen mountain tops of eastern lands unknown
Time and Man alone
Searching for the lost Xanadu
Xanadu...
To stand within the Pleasure Dome
Decreed by Kubla Khan
To taste anew the fruits of life
The last immortal man
To find the sacred river Alph
To walk the caves of ice
Oh, I will dine on honeydew
And drink the milk of Paradise
A thousand years have come and gone but time has passed me by
Stars stopped in the sky
Frozen in an everlasting view
Waiting for the world to end, weary of the night
Praying for the light
Prison of the lost
Xanadu
Xanadu...
Held within the Pleasure Dome
Decreed by Kubla Khan
To taste my bitter triumph
As a mad immortal man
Nevermore shall I return
Escape these caves of ice
For I have dined on honeydew
And drunk the milk of Paradise

Songs for a rainy day
[B]Rainy Day, rain all day
Ain't no use in gettin' uptight, just let it...
Groove it's own way
Let it drain your worries away
Lay back and groove on a Rainy Day
Lay back and dream on a Rainy Day
Lay back and, lay back and, lay back and, lay back and, DreeEEEeeeEEEEEeeeeEEEEEeeeeEEEEEEEEeeee
{And then the song "Rainy Day, Dream Away" turns into "1983...A Mermaid I Should Turn To Be", where...
"Down and Down and Down and Down and Down and Down we go
Hurry, my darling, we mustn't be late...for the shore"
Then it rips back into...
"Still Raining, Still Dreaming.......................................... ......................................
