Till The Sun Comes Out

Lost out in the rain, the drizzly autumn rain
Another wasted dream tumbles down the gutter drain
You got no place to go if this rain should turn to snow
But there ain't no turning back if her heart has lost its glow
You better get moving down that road again

   Where do you wanna be when the sun comes out?
   Whatta got left when you got no doubt?
   Just hope you can outlast this cloud
   Till the sun comes out

She got them low-down blues, them dirty low-down blues
Her heart is even colder than that rain down in your shoes
She used to be your pearl, wouldn't trade her for the world
But no man can ever know what goes on inside a girl
You might as well face it, there's nothing to lose

   Where do you wanna be when the sun comes out?
   Whatta got left when you got no doubt?
   Just hope you can outlast this cloud
   Till the sun comes out

Somewhere down that road, that shiny wind-y road
There lies a better life than this row you've always hoed
But till that sunny day, you'd best be on your way
And take what this life hands you and keep going, come what may
Don't bother to gather all those oats you sewed

   Where do you wanna be when the sun comes out?
   Whatta got left when you got no doubt?
   Just hope you can outlast this cloud
   Till the sun comes out

   Where do you wanna be when the sun comes out?
   Whatta got left when you got no doubt?
   Just hope you can outlast this cloud
   Till the sun comes out

 

The first line of the refrain of this song came to me while photographing. I could see that a cloud was about to move and tried to figure out where the best next picture would be. While many songs take up to a month of studio work, this one went from conception to finished recording in just a week.
