Analysis of Summer Rain.
Teresa Whitney 1951 (Tacoma)
When it rains it pours,
So I have been told,
But nothing could be sweeter,
Then within your arms to hold,
Feeling you so close,
Looking into your eyes,
A smile upon your lips,
Summer rain within the sky,
See not my tears that fall,
Hear not my saddened sigh,
Believe tomorrow will bring,
Keeping me by your side,
When it rains it pours,'
Bringing me home again,
Feel my heart felt sighs,
Within the summer rain.
