about

No regrets, but looking back fondly at an adventure. The Colonel wrote this one right in the middle of a devastating Australian drought, hoping it would surf to prominence on a wave of no water. Pretty much as soon as we started performing it, the heavens opened and the water situation became much less severe, rendering the song's topical relevance obsolete. The Colonel believes the timing is no coincidence and now credits himself with ending the drought.

lyrics

Another year gone
And you're still in hiding
My only reminder's a hole in the door
And this dinner for one
So quiet alone
Without all the fighting
You'd think I'd be happy accepting surrender
And lying alone in the warmth of the sun

But I miss the rain running down your street
And I miss the taste of tears on your cheek
There's not a cloud in the sky
But this Earth's getting dry
And the sun's shining straight in my eye
I miss the rain in my life.

The party's at yours now
Seems I'm not invited
And now all the memories of long crowded showers
Need washing away

So I'm sitting alone
Avoiding the coffee
Trying to silence the feelings inside me that told me
To call you and beg you to stay

Still I dream of the day
When you fall back in my arms
Of mornings alone
Without phone cals or alarms
I've said my goodbyes
But you're always in my heart just the same
And I miss the rain
