Rainy Day In Centreville - Minnie Riperton

Sitting all alone I hear the tapping of the rain

Dance ballerina dance

Talking with the rain in some small city I feel the pain

She’s dancing all alone

Thinking how we’d wait together

Sitting by the fire in weather just like this

Playing lovers' games;

hoping the rain would never end

And I thought about the night we met

How the gentle rain fell down, kissed the ground

Then I knew no one ever could take your place

Nothing seems the same but the falling rain

You’ve gone away

Walking by the sea;

sitting beneath a tree;

You are not here.
