Fire And Rain - Richie Havens

Just yesterday morning, they let me know you were gone

Suzanne, the plans they made put an end to you

I walked out this morning and I wrote down this song

I just can’t remember who to send it to

I’ve seen fire and I’ve seen rain.

I’ve seen sunny days that I thought would

never end

I’ve seen lonely times when I could not find a friend, but I always thought

that I’d see you again

Won’t you look down upon me, Jesus, You’ve got to help me make a stand

You’ve just got to see me through another day

My body’s aching and my time is at hand and I won’t make it any other way

Oh, I’ve seen fire and I’ve seen rain.

I’ve seen sunny days that I thought

would never end

I’ve seen lonely times when I could not find a friend, but I always thought

that I’d see you again

Been walking my mind to an easy time, my back turned towards the sun

Lord knows when the cold wind blows it’ll turn your head around

Well, there’s hours of time on the telephone line to talk about things to come

Sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground

Oh, I’ve seen fire and I’ve seen rain.

I’ve seen sunny days that I thought

would never end

I’ve seen lonely times when I could not find a friend

But I always thought that I’d see you baby, one more time again, now

Thought I’d see you one more time again

There’s just a few things coming my way this time around, now

Thought I’d see you, thought I’d see you, fire and rain, now
