Stormy Weather

(Leo Sayer - Tom Snow)

Emmylou Harris & Tanya Tucker



Sometimes you can be like a stranger

In moments when you're so far away

In the night when I reach out to hold you

You just turn away, why do you turn away?



I love you so when you're smilin'

But your smile has faded overnight

Will we stay like this for a lifetime?

Gettin' nothin' right, gettin' nothin' right.



Why do we always have stormy weather?

Why do we have it so rough?

Is it so hard just to stay close together?

Why can't we ever have love?



Oh, I knew from the first time I saw you

I just had to make you mine

I felt so sad when you told me

About your troubled life,

All about your troubled life



So here we are just a few years further

Still tryin' to make it work

I've a feelin' what we really need right now

Is just a little love, oh baby, just a little love.



Why should we always have stormy weather?

Why should we have it so rough?

It's not so hard just to stay close together

Why can't we only have love?

Why should we always have stormy weather?

Why should we have it so rough?

It's not so hard just to stay close together

Why can't we only have love?



Why should we always have stormy weather?

Why should we have it so rough?

It's not so hard just to stay close together...
