Lyrics
November Rains, by E.C. Lorick (copyright 2000)
We didn't see the rains come down
For many nights and days
We walked across that hot, baked ground
And moved on through the haze
The Serengeti makes no sound
Beneath these killing rays
How long have we waited now
For November rains?
Little Eli, don't you try to play
Just quit your running 'round
You're going to need your strength today
So settle yourself down
There's a place across the way
Where water may be found
And if they rains don't come they say
That's where we'll be bound
November Rains, please November, rain
And, we've been waiting for you
We've been waiting for you
Just for you
Hear them calling
Hills and plains are calling
For you, too
Looking for that mother lode
To come and save the herd
'Cause in the desert water is gold
But "gold" is just a word
We turn our faces to the sky
Although we search in vain
For who can make the heavens cry?
November Rains
Sometimes I think I hear the sound
Of thunder far away
And drops of water hit the ground
And see the clouds turn gray
But, there ain't nothing coming down
They may not come again
Still, we'll always love the sound
of November Rains
November Rains, please, November, rain
And, we've been waiting for you
We've been waiting for you
Just for you
Hear them calling
Hills and plains are calling
For you, too
