Lyrics
ORPHANELL, ON A RAINY DAY
Orphanell, on a rainy day,
On an afternoon in June-
Though you wish your man would stay
That’s crying for the moon-
But, through your silent teacup storms,
Through lonely days like these,
Oh, Orphanell, I share your stormy seas…
Orphanell, you have a friend:
You have a saving grace-
Through afternoons without an end,
In such a lonely place-
Because, one rainy afternoon,
Beneath dark loaded skies,
Did you unload the sadness in your eyes.
And now I realize
That the reason's not the heat and dust and flies
Because, one rainy afternoon,
Beneath dark loaded skies,
Did you unload the sadness in your eyes.
Orphanell, on a rainy day,
On an afternoon in June…
