Hello forum friends. I have been away for too long......just one thing and another. What a pleasure to return to such wonderful songs and people! This is a kind of Bossa blues.....not sure if that is really a genre or something that I just came up with. I always love emotionally tragic songs, and I thought Earl sang the heck out of it! Hope you enjoy it, or at least are moved to some emotion by it. BTW, recently I noticed happy birthday wishes from a bunch of folks here.....THanks so much.....this was a BIG one.....65.....OMG!!! Take care. Greg

Rainin So Hard

Well It’s raining
So hard
I can barely see across the yard
Yet the butterflies are gliding on the breeze

And the birds can still sing
Unencumbered by anything
Guess the world is fine
Up there in the trees

But In my heart, there’s rain
That gloomy everyday is Monday pain And the weatherman inside
Says there’s no sun in sight

And I miss you
So bad
Ive never, ever known
Love like we had
And I know I never, I never will again

We all suffer I know
But I never knew how deep this hole could go And I’m falling, falling, falling
In a space without end
I know tomorrow will come
And maybe with some time I’ll just get numb I’ll suffer until then
Cause I know you’re not coming back again And I’m drowning in the rain
