Summer Rain (Amaoto*)




  A soul stirring song sung by vocalist/pianist Keith Williams:

  Words and music 
  by Phil Morrison

  (note... this song was written and recorded in Japan and it’s alternate title is “Amaoto” which means “the sound of rain””).  








Clouds from an Asian sky -
Riding on the winds of change in summer
Rains come like tears that cleanse the eye -
Listen......hear the rain

Sunshine has slipped away
As the light is dimmed for dreams in slumber
Fields turn from green to misty grey
Listen......hear the rain

Gone is the sound of silence
New rhythms......are near
Old songs from deep inside us
Make memories......reappear

Warm is the summer air
As the cooling waters fall from heaven
Raindrops are dancing without care
Listen......hear the rain
