about

music and rain story.

lyrics

Saturday is a windy day.
A little rain falls against his face.
April showers have come in may.

On a fountain the rain makes
concentric circles on the waves.
Somewhere in the town a piano plays.

He looks everywhere for symphonies,
but all he ever gets
are beautiful quartets.

He watches cars drive down the street.
A little water splashes on his feet.
A little thunder, like timpani.

And in the theater where he waits
people take there seats
and the lights fade.
somewhere in the town rain coms down.

He looks everywhere for symphonies,
but all he ever gets
are beautiful quartets.

Saturday is a windy day. A little rain falls against his face.
April showers have come in may.

And he looks everywhere for symphonies,
but all he ever gets
are beautiful quartets.
