Pam Tillis - Mandolin Rain Lyrics
(bruce hornsby/john hornsby)The song came and wentLike the times that we spentHiding out from the rain under the carnival tentId laugh and hed smileAnd it would last for a whileYou dont know what you got til you lose it all againListen to the mandolin rain, listen to the music on the lakeListen to my heart break, every time that he goes awayListen to the banjo wind, a sad song drifting lowListen to my tears roll, down my face as he turns to goA cool evening danceListening to the bluegrass band takes the chillFrom the air til they play the last songAnd Ill do my timeKeeping you off my mind but theres momentsThat I find, Im not feeling so strongListen to the mandolin rain, listen to the music on the lakeListen to my heart break, every time that he goes awayListen to the banjo wind, a sad song drifting lowListen to my tears roll, down my face as he turns to goRunning down by the lakeshoreHe did love the sound of a summer stormIt played on the lake like a mandolinNow its washing him away once againOnce again, once againListen to the mandolin rain, listen to the music on the lakeListen to my heart break, every time that he goes awayListen to the banjo wind, a sad song drifting lowListen to my tears roll, down my face as he turns to goListen to my tears roll, down my face as he turns to go
