DOG IN THE RAIN Was it a crack in the sidewalk Or how the light caught the street Or maybe it was only A faint feeling on the breeze Was it a sound from an alley The sky a certain kind of blue Or was it all from out of my memory That brought this picture of you Ooh Relieve and retain Have mercy on this Dog in the Rain Spring dress in a warm caress of a Gulfwind gracing my hide Words too soft for coffecups Echoing from their shrine I caught a shadow appearin' A car racin' in the night Inside the shrill light of neon Or was it just a simple trick of the light Was it a song in the distance Was it the light of the moon Or was it just my resistance To clear my memory of you Ooh Relieve and retain Have mercy on this Dog in the Rain Ooh Relieve and retain Pour sun upon this Dog in the Rain Words & music by Tor Kristian Berg ©2004
