Goodnight Rain

from Johanna, Johanna by Ian Taylor

/

lyrics

Somewhere out there in a kitchen far away
there's a girl who's dreaming of sleeping all day.
She wanders down 5th and main searching for some cocaine
Destiny's child, I cannot explain. I wrote this for you
Goodnight Rain.
There's some nasty weather coming our way
she just smiles says "Darling we're safe."
She knows it all, can't be wrong, with a face like my favorite song.
I tell her I love her she just laughs it off
Says "That's silly baby, you don't know me at all."
"You don't know me at all."

Will I be alone when I wake up?
Cause a dream like you is too much to hold.
So in case I don't see you anymore
I just wanna say
Goodnight Rain.

She's calming and honest like oblivion, like opium.
She's divine sent, magnificent, like a poem, like a garden.
She handles pain like abstract paint, peaceful like Novocaine.
A symphony of mystery flowing through my veins.
A sweet relief of harmonies in the bones of her face.
There's some nasty weather coming our way
she just smiles says "Darling we're safe."
She knows it all, can't be wrong, with a face like my favorite song.
I tell her I love her she just laughs it off
Says "That's silly baby, you don't know me at all."

Will I be alone when I wake up?
Cause a dream like you is too much to hold.
So in case I don't see you anymore
I just wanna say
Goodnight Rain.
