Answer 1

Walk Between the Raindrops
James McMurtry----1998


Don't know what's gotten into you
Must be something in your genes
About this time I was crazy, too
'N most times in between
But I survived to live another day
I might've learned a trick or two
So just remember when your old and your gray
Some of what I taught to you

(chorus)
Stay alive inside,
don't be a stranger
Keep a line open to
the folks back home
Don't run and hide
when everything changes
Walk between the raindrops
dry as a bone

You're laying low, staying outta sight
Hanging out in your room
You're up all night by the monitor's light
Sleeping through the afternoon
Well, I won't tell you how you gotta be
You're old enough to make a choice
It's just that in between all the words on the screen
I doubt you'll ever hear a human voice

(chorus)
Stay alive inside,
don't be a stranger
Keep a line open to
the outside world
Don't run and hide
when everything changes
Walk between the raindrops
smooth as a pearl

You're at that age
And you know it all
And you're not even hearing what I say
Knowing better never kept me outta trouble
I don't care I'm gonna tell you anyway

(chorus)

A shadow crossed the blue Miami sky
As we hit the causeway by the big hotel
We fought
Now I can't remember why
After all the words were said and tears were gone
We vowed we'd never say goodbye

When we kissed we could hear the sound of thunder
As we watched the regulars rush the big hotels
We kissed again as the showers swept the Florida shore
You opened your umbrella
But we walked between the raindrops back to your door

In my dreams I can hear the sound of thunder
I can see the causeway by the big hotels
That happy day we'll find each other on that Florida shore
You'll open your umbrella
And we'll walk between the raindrops back to your door...

"Walk Between The Raindrops"
(Tim Coates and Steve McPhail)

Walk Between The Rain Drops

All her life she been waitin’
For Somethin’ fall from the sky
Livin’ without sunshine
Never known why

She never knew love, knew joy
No shelter, no place
No place to cry
She never knew love, knew joy
No shelter, no place
A place to cry

Chorus:
You got to walk between the rain drops
Mother nature won’t give you no sun
You got to walk between the rain drops
Like a train, train on the run

She said I don’t need no rain coat,
Don’t need no umbrella
Won’t be splashin’ today
On the way to where I, where I
got to go

Chorus:
You got to walk between the rain drops
Mother nature won’t give you no sun
You got to walk between the rain drops
Like a train, train on the run

Thought she could get through her life
Like no cloud in the sky
Like a beam of light would bless her now
Everything that she tried to come now
get you through life

Chorus:
You got to walk between the rain drops
Mother nature won’t give you no sun
You got to walk between the rain drops
Like a train, train on the run
