Miss The Rain

from Home Brew by Suade

/

  • Streaming + Download

    We've digitised all our music and made it available in MP3 format. Sure, you can buy Suade music at iTunes - and thousands of people worldwide do - but to be honest Apple keeps rather a bigger slice of the pie than we expected. That's fine but we thought we'd give you guys the chance to support us directly through our own MP3 store. Here's how it works:

    - We've kept our pricing lower than iTunes - all prices are in Aussie dollars
    - All our songs are encoded as high-quality 256kbps MP3
    - There's no DRM copy protection or usage restrictions, so you can use them on all your devices
    - We'll throw in artwork PDFs with full album purchases, so you can read all the cover notes, look at pretty pictures etc
    - Your money goes straight to supporting Suade, not buying Steve Jobs another Benz. We need Benzes too!
    Purchasable with gift card

      $1.60 AUD

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
