Song Nr. 79 – When You Love The Falling Rain
„Wenn Du Regenwetter liebst, dann wirst Du irgendwann verrückt“. Diese Aussage ist das eigenartige Fazit dieses Songs, der einen etwas bizarren Regenwetter-Alltag in der Stadt beschreibt. Dann scheint hier halt alles ein bisschen anders zu laufen, als wenn es trocken ist oder die Sonne scheint. Zumindest in diesem etwas verrückten Song geht es also ein bisschen „drunter und drüber“. Und dies soundmäßig im bester „Status-Quo-Machart“: „WHEN YOU LOVE THE FALLING RAIN“.
Lyrics Song Nr. 79 – When You Love The Falling Rain
Sometimes it seems that life´s a little different, when the rain falls.
Just like a faded picture postcard, when the rain falls.
Streets are almost empty. The boardwalk seems to float away.
Come on, let´s go out dancing, just like any other day.
Schoolkids busy learning, homework doesn´t make no sense.
Their teacher ´s with a lady, forgetting his job again.
Subway´s overcrowded, conductor´s got to work really hard.
No children on the playground, no dogs are barking in the yard.
When the rain falls, when the rain falls – down.
When the rain falls, when the rain falls – down.
When the rain falls, we go dancing on.
When the rain falls, we go dancing on.
SOLO
When you love the falling rain, you will go insane.
Policeman in his office, his secretary on his knees.
It´s part of her job, she´s trying very hard to please.
His wife don´t really care, she´s got herself a backdoor man.
Another lonely woman, looking for the promised land.
When the rain falls, when the rain falls – down.
When the rain falls, when the rain falls – down.
When the rain falls, we go dancing on.
When the rain falls, we go dancing on.
When the rain falls, when the rain falls – down.
