Fire And Rain

(Album: Standing Ovation - 1971)

Just yesterday morning they let me know you were gone
Seems like the plans they made put an end to you
I walked out this morning and I wrote down this song
I just can't remember who to send it to

I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you again

Won't you look upon me, Jesus, You've gotta help me make a stand
You just got to see me through another day
My body's aching and my time is at hand
I won't make it any other way

I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you again

Now I'm walking my mind to an easy time
I got my back turned toward the sun
Lord knows when the cold wind blows
It'll turn your head around
There's hours of time on the telephone line
To talk about things to come
Sweet dreams and the flying machine
In pieces on the ground

I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you again

I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you again

I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days I thought would never end
I've seen some lonely nights when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you again...
