Down here the river meets the sea In the sticky heat I feel you open up to me Love comes outta nowhere baby Just like a hurricane And it feels like rain Lying underneath the stars Right next to you I'm wonderin' who you are And how do you do How do you do baby? The clouds roll in Across the moon The wind howls out your name And it feels like rain And it feels like rain Baby can ya feel it? We ain't never gonna make that bridge tonight babe Across Lake Pontchartrain And it feels like rain And it feels like rain So batten down the hatches baby But leave your heart out on your sleeve Looks like we're in for stormy weather But that ain't no cause for us to leave Just lie here in my arms Let it wash away the pain And it feels like rain Feels like rain Baby can ya feel it?
