Damn, Sam (I Love A Woman That Rains)

I love when it rains at home. And today - it is raining. Raining pretty hard too. And since I feel like I am getting sick, I could never get in touch with Carlo to confirm what time church was, and he has not called me about lunch or the other things were were suppose to do today, I have opted for curling up under a warm blanket and listening to the rain. Ok - what that really means is that I have been sleeping a lot. ;-)

When it rains like this I often think of a Ryan Adams song. I'm not really sure what he means by all of these lyrics, but I do know that a day like today + Ryan Adams music + a bottle of wine + really good company would = good snuggling and sweet conversation.

Lyrics:
Damn, Sam (I Love A Woman That Rains)

As a man I ain’t never been much for sunny days
I’m as calm as a fruit stand in New York and maybe as strange
But when the color goes out of my eyes, it’s usually the change

But damn Sam I love a woman that rains

Clear as a bell, and sound as an old engineer
Clear as a bell, and sound as an old engineer
With talented breezes that blow off your hat with a sneer
As a man I’ve never been much for talking to
I’m as open as the door in her house that leads to her room
And when the color goes out of my eyes, she’s usually too

But damn Sam I love a woman that’s blue

As a man I ain’t never been much for sunny days
I’m as calm as a fruit stand in New York and maybe as strange
But when the color goes out of my eyes, it’s usually the change

But damn Sam I love a woman that rains
