From the recording Better World
October Rain, by Richard Raitano and David Stumph: The monsoon rains in Vietnam hit hard. And when it pounded down on the tin roofs of our huts during the war, our thought turned to our loved ones back home. So, this is both a love song and a recollection back to the Vietnam war.
Lyrics
October Rain
by Richard Raitano and David Stumph
Verse 1:
October rain fell relentlessly
On the avenues of my mind
You were there contentedly
Unrefined
Chorus:
When the wet sounds
Come bouncing
My thoughts around
I fell within you
With just one look
Love is ever an new
An undying book
Verse 2:
Warm bodies sleeping
Loving and keeping
That human feel they can’t destroy
What is real
Chorus:
When the dark sounds
Come seeping
I can’t hear you
I’m too busy sleeping
With love
With love
With love
With love in my heart
Bridge:
Let it rain, Let it rain
Ooo, let it rain
Let it rain, Let it rain
Ooo, let it rain
Chorus:
When the dark sounds
Come seeping
I can’t hear you
I’m too busy sleeping
With love
With love
With love
With love in my heart
Bridge:
Let it rain, Let it rain
Ooo, let it rain
Let it rain, Let it rain
Ooo, let it rain
Let it rain, Let it rain
Ooo, let it rain
Let it rain, Let it rain
Ooo, let it rain
Let it rain, Let it rain
Ooo, let it rain
Let it rain, Let it rain
Ooo, let it rain
Let it rain, Let it rain
Ooo, let it rain
Let it rain, Let it rain
Ooo, let it rain
