Long as I remember
The rain been coming down.
Clouds of myst'ry pouring
Confusion on the ground.
Good men through the ages,
Trying to find the sun;
And I wonder,
Still I wonder,
Who'll stop the rain.
I went down Virginia,
Seeking shelter from the storm.
Caught up in the fable,
I watched the tower grow.
Five year plans and new deals,
Wrapped in golden chains.
And I wonder,
Still I wonder,
Who'll stop the rain.
Heard the singers playing,
How we cheered for more.
The crowd had rushed together,
Trying to keep warm.
Still the rain kept pouring,
Falling on my ears.
And I wonder,
Still I wonder,
Who'll stop the rain.
Creedence Clearwater Revival, Who'll Stop The Rain?, written by John Fogerty, from their 1970 album Cosmo's Factory
Anyone who remembers the Africa arc from Nadia knows why I want a song that summons rain for Blue Skies, Blue Water, and (ignoring the metaphor) this one looks to fit the bill...
