When It Starts to Rain

When It Starts to Rain - Jimmy LaFave

Thinking you when it starts to rain

Shadow dancing across your yard

While your folks fall fast asleep you move in

The moon and stars

I thinking you girl across the highway miles

In places that you've never been

I thinking you when I feel at peace

I thinking you when I need a friend

I thinking you in the morning light

Waking to your sunlit smile

I thinking you when you go away

Even for a little while

Thinking you like an angel's song

Plays so softly in my head

Keeps me safe deep inside my dreams

As I lay upon my bed

I thinking you almost all the time

Thinking you in the night and day

I thinking you in a million unsaid words

Thinking you almost every way

I thinking you and the lonely years

I thinking you through the passing days

I thinking you so wild and free

Hope you always stay that way

Thinking you and your photograph

Keep beside me in the night

Sometimes when my darkness falls

I hold you close to feel your light

I thinking you when it pours down rain

Shadow dancing across your yard

Hand in hand with your shadow little angel

You move beneath the moon and stars

Thinking you in the morning light

Waking to your sunlit smile

I thinking you when you go away

Even for a little while

Thinking you when it starts to rain

Thinking you when it starts to rain
