Текст (слова) песни: Robert Earl Keen - Not a Drop of Rain



Streets are almost empty, shops are closed down
There`s not a soul left in the bar to tell my troubles to
Think I`ll walk down to the river that runs just south of town
I hate like hell when there ain`t nothin` left to do
But stand beneath the river bridge and listen for the train
It`s been a long hot summer, not a drop of rain

I broke down in December
I headed for the coast
I thought the wind and water would elevate my mind
I surfaced in the springtime feelin` like a ghost
Missin` more than ever the things I left behind
Now I`m standin` on this riverbank and still cannot explain
It`s been a long hot summer, not a drop of rain
My bag is full of letters unopened and unread
I`m sure they`d tell the story of worry and of form
My heart is beating heavy with all we left unsaid
I swear to you I never meant you any harm
But sacrifice and compromise could never stand the strain
It`s been a long hot summer, not a drop of rain

Tonight I`ll close my eyes again and try to see your face
And listen for your voice to tell me it`s alright to sleep
Convince myself I`ll wake up in another time and place
Knowin` all the while that it`s a promise I can`t keep
A string of broken promises, another link of chain
It`s been a long hot summer, not a drop of rain

The children on the playground, the lovers in the shade
Remind me of a life and time that feels more like a dream
When the sound of love and laughter was the music that we played
As we lay beside the waters of a never ending stream
Now the stream has gone to hiding, the dream lives on in vain
It`s been a long hot summer, not a drop of rain

The clouds are building slowly on the skyline to the east
The wind and dust are dancing like the devil across the lake
I could try to find a bottle or try to find a priest
Salvation won`t be traveling either road I take
So I turn my collar to the wind that echoes this refrain
It`s been a long hot summer, not a drop of rain
