Waiting for the Rain - Bonus Track - Bertie Higgins

There you were on the bar room floor

Dancing with a stranger

Whirling and laughing through the smoke

There I stood on my lonely stage

Breaking into pieces

Hadn't seen your face since '64

Who's that man by your side

I stood there wondering

Playing all the songs of you I ever wrote

Finally made you look my way

And you turned those green eyes on

You scared me so bad I thought I would choke

(C)

And now I'm.

Waiting for the rain after seeing you again

Thought I could handle most anything

That hit me yet

Oh Lord I'm...

Waiting for the rain a blowin'

Waiting for the pain

That's growing in a memory that's too hard to ___ yet

I remember lying warm beside you

Rushing like a schoolboy

As you dropped your ___ on the floor

I could have had you forever

But I got lost in the ___ of lights

Oh honey why did you have to come here for?

(C)

Introduced me to your love

Showed me pictures of your kids

I felt the tears coming misty through my eyes

Excused myself and said how good it had been

Hey maybe we'll get together again

As I fell apart and said goodbye
