Van Zandt, Townes - None But The Rain Lyrics






We had our day but now it's over
We had our song but now it's sung
We had our stroll through summers clover
But summer's gone now, our walkin's done

So tell me gently who be your lover
Who be your lover after I'm gone
Will it be the moon that hears your sighin'
Will it be the willow that hears your lonesome song

Will it be the rain that clings to your bosom
Will it be the sunshine that dries your golden hair
Will it be the wind that warns of my returning
Will a rose be in your arms when I find you waitin' there

None but the rain should cling to my bosom
None but the moon should hear my lonesome sigh
None but the wind should warn of your returning
Fare thee well, my love, good-bye

    We had our day but now it's over
    We had our song but now it's sung
    We had our stroll through summers clover
    But summer's gone now, our walkin's done

    So tell me gently who be your lover
    Who be your lover after I'm gone
    Will it be the moon that hears your sighin'
    Will it be the willow that hears your lonesome song

    Will it be the rain that clings to your bosom
    Will it be the sunshine that dries your golden hair
    Will it be the wind that warns of my returning
    Will a rose be in your arms when I find you waitin' there

    None but the rain should cling to my bosom
    None but the moon should hear my lonesome sigh
    None but the wind should warn of your returning
    Fare thee well, my love, good-bye

  6. b.... ....

    The greatest song about lost love ever written.

  7. j.... ....

    Everyone who has ever lost their true love can relate

  8. M.... L....

    The man was incredible - truly - a sweet man with f'ing demons who would not let him be. He's in heaven and those demons are far away from him in hell where they belong. And, Townes, well, Townes is writing songs for God and the Angels and all the other artists to play and sing together. God Rest His Soul

  9. E.... d....

    What a treasure.

  10. L.... M....

    A Treasure!

    Beautiful song. One of my favorites by Townes. He was a hell of a poet.
