JANE MORGANTHE DAY THAT THE RAINS CAME DOWN - 01/23/1959
1 week at #1 - 16 weeks on chart
The day that the rains came down
Mother Earth smiled again
Now the lilacs could bloom
Now the fields could grow greener
The day that the rains came down
Buds were born, love was born
As the young buds will grow
So our young love will grow
Love, sweet love
A robin sang a song of love
A willow tree reached up to the heavens
As if to thank the sky above
For all that rain
That welcome rain
We looked across the meadowland
And seemed to sense a kind of a miracle
Much too deep to understand
And there we were, so much in love
The day that the rains came down
Mountain streams swelled with pride
Gone the dry river bed
Gone the dust from the valley
The day that the rains came down
Buds were born, love was born
As the young buds will grow
So our young love will grow
Love, sweet love
Rain, sweet rain...
Hola all you expat patriots,
It's been raining here in Tepiclandia for two days now which is unseasonal and refreshing if you don't care about your daily wash getting dry...Luckily we do have some reserves...Are you ready to see who will be in this year's Super Bowl??? None of my teams are going to be in it so I can root for the Colts and New Orleans and not shed a tear either way...I just like to see Payton throw and Reggie run!!!
Yesterday was another stay at home day with Alice coming through with a steamingly hot and delicious chowder which goes well with a rainy day...Alice's chowder is more like a hearty stew with milk on top, chicken instead of clams on the bottom and potatoes and corn in-between...Delicioso!!!
I will soon be over at Vip's for my morning coffee so, if your in the area, please drop by!!!
Cheerio,
Cliffardo
