Let's just listen to the rain roll in

"Rain Roll In" by Eilen Jewell
Sitting in my kitchen listening to the rain dancing on my conservatory roof and this song popped into my head. I first heard this on one of my Dad's friends annual compilation Cd's. "Rain Roll In" by Eilen Jewell has since then imprinted on me so much that whenever it rains, I have to play it.



There is only one constant in this old world,
That's nothing ever stays the same.
Someday my life will be over
and no on will remember my name;
But that's alright because what's in a name
and who needs another one to memorize anyway?
Make no fuss over my grave
Just plant something pretty and call it a day

Let's just listen to the rain roll in
I don't feel like we gotta do nothing
Years go by and before too long
Even the very last one is gone
.... the very last one is gone

No one ever said that it would always be good
And if they did they were just wrong
I've loved it all and I'll miss it when I'm gone
My life's been my art and I've told it in my song

Let's just listen to the rain roll in
I don't feel like we gotta do nothing
Years go by and before too long
Even the very last one is gone
.... the very last one is gone
