Seven lonely days And a dozen towns ago I reached out one night And you were gone Don't know why you'd run, What you're running to or from All I know is I want to bring you home
So I'm walking in the rain, Thumbing for a ride On this lonely Kentucky backroad I've loved you much too long My love's too strong To let you go, never knowing What went wrong
Kentucky rain keeps pouring down And up ahead's another town That I'll be walking through With the rain in my shoes, Searching for you In the cold Kentucky rain, In the cold Kentucky rain
Showed your photograph To some old gray bearded men Sitting on a bench Outside a general store They said
Well, I love a rainy night I love a rainy night I love to hear the thunder Watch the lightning When it lights up the sky You know it makes me feel good Well, I love a rainy night It's such a beautiful sight I love to feel the rain On my face Taste the rain on my lips In the moonlight shadow Showers washed All my cares away I wake up to a sunny day 'Cos I love a rainy night Yeah, I love a rainy night Well, I love a rainy night Well, I love a rainy night Ooh-ooh I love a rainy night I love a rainy night I love to hear the thunder Watch the lightning When it lights up the sky You know it makes me feel good Well, I love a rainy night It's such a beautiful sight I love to feel the rain On my face To taste the rain on my lips In the moonlight shadows Puts a song In this heart of mine Puts a smile on my face every time 'Cos I love a rainy night Yeah, I love a rainy night Ooh, I love a rainy night Yeah, I love a rainy night Ooh-ooh Showers washed All my cares away I wake up to a sunny day 'Cos I love a rainy night Yeah, I love a rainy night Well, I love a rainy night I love a rainy night Well, I love a rainy night You can see it in my eyes Yeah, I love a rainy night Well, it makes me high Ooh, I love a rainy night You know I do, yeah, yeah I love a rainy night I love a rainy night You can see it in my eyes.
I'm so glad that I met you, baby And I'm so proud when we walk down the street And I know it's crazy to worry like I do But I get this feelin' that I'm losing you
Chorus:
I get these suspicions Even though I know that you love me, baby And I really shouldn't feel this way Suspicions I can't help it you're just so good lookin' I'm afraid somebody's gonna steal you away from me
When I go out to a party with you You always turn every head in the room And I just know what's on every man's mind I try to fight it, but it gets me sometimes
(Chorus)
(Instrumental break)
Ooh, suspicions
When I'm with you, I feel so satisfied The way you touch me when you lay by my side And that look you get in your eyes when we love Makes me hate myself for what I'm thinkin' of
(Chorus)
Suspicions Even though I know that you love me, baby And I really shouldn't feel this way Suspicions I can't help it you're just so good lookin' I'm afraid somebody's gonna steal you away from me Suspicions Even though I know that you love me, baby And I really shouldn't feel this way
Well I love a rainy night I love a rainy night I love to hear the thunder Watch the lightning When it lights up the sky You know it makes me feel good
Well I love a rainy night It's such a beautiful sight I love to feel the rain On my face To taste the rain on my lips In the moonlight shadow
CHORUS: Showers washed All my cares away I'd wake up to a sunny day 'Cause I love a rainy night Yes I love a rainy night Well I love a rainy night I love a rainy night
Well I love a rainy night I love a rainy night I love to hear the thunder Watch the lightning When it lights up the sky You know it makes me feel good
Well I love a rainy night It's such a beautiful sight I love to feel the rain On my face To taste the rain on my lips In the moonlight shadow
Puts a song In this heart of mine Puts a smile on my face every time
'Cause I love a rainy night Yeah I love a rainy night Ooh I love a rainy night Yeah I love a rainy night
Well the midnight headlights blind you on a rainy night steep grade up ahead slow me down makin no time gotta keep rollin those windshield wipers slappin out a tempo keepin perfect rhythm with the song on the radio gotta keep rolling
Ooh I'm driving my life away, looking for a better way, for me ooh I'm driving my life away, looking for a sunny day
Well the truck stop cutie comin' on to me tried to talk me into a ride said I wouldn't be sorry oh, but she was just a baby well waitress pour me another cup of coffee pop me down jack me up shoot me out flyin down the highway lookin for the morning
Ooh I'm driving my life away, looking for a better way, for me ooh I'm driving my life away, looking for a sunny day
Well the midnight headlights blind you on a rainy night steep grade up ahead slow me down makin no time gotta keep rollin those windshield wipers slappin out a tempo keepin perfect rhythm with the song on the radio gotta keep rolling
Ooh I'm driving my life away, looking for a better way, for me ooh I'm driving my life away, looking for a sunny day
