Ballad of McLaughlin (Beneath the Rain)
[Chorus]
One morning beneath the rain
I slept a lengthy hour
Thinkin' 'bout my life's disdain
And a love no longer ours
[Verse 1]
In evening town I met her
A smile within the dark
Watched my window shatter
As she looked within my heart
[Verse 2]
We walked along the river
Passing our minds between
Making each other shiver
As we both threw coins to the stream
[Chorus]
One morning beneath the rain
I slept a lengthy hour
Thinkin' 'bout my life's disdain
And a love no longer ours
[Verse 3]
We sеarched for a tree that was hollow
But we couldn't find evеn a tree
Thought we heard somebody follow
Oh, but we were already down on our knees
[Verse 4]
I couldn't offer to send her
Anything that she might keep
And when I tried to mend her
Oh, my mind fell off to sleep
[Chorus]
One morning beneath the rain
I slept a lengthy hour
Thinkin' 'bout my life's disdain
And a love no longer ours
