Lyrics for Song: I Wish It Would Rain 
Lyrics for Album: Little Love Affairs [2009]
  
               
  17145>Oh, I wish it would rain, it's gonna wash my face clean
  I wanna find some dark cloud to hide in here
  Oh, love and a memory sparkle like diamonds
  When the diamonds fall they burn like tears
  When the diamonds fall they burn like tears
 
 
  Once I had a love from the Georgia Pans who only cared for me
  I want to find that love of twenty-two here at thirty-three
  I've got a heart on my right and one on my left, it neither suits my needs
  No, the one I love is way out West and he never will need me
 
 
  So I wish it would rain and gonna wash my face clean
  I want to find some dark cloud to hide in here
  Oh, love and a memory sparkle like diamonds
  When the diamonds fall they burn like tears
  When the diamonds fall they burn like tears
 
 
  Gonna pack up my two-step shoes
  And head for the Gulf Coast plains
  I wanna walk the streets of my own home town
  Where everybody knows my name
 
 
  I want to ride a ways down to Galveston
  When the hurricanes blow in
  'Cause that Gulf Coast water tastes sweet as wine
  When your heart's rolling home in the wind
 
 
  And I wish it would rain and gonna wash my face clean
  I wanna find some dark cloud to hide in here
  Oh, love and a memory sparkle like diamonds
 
 
  When the diamonds fall they burn like tears
  When the diamonds fall they burn like tears
  When the diamonds fall they burn like a tear
