Have you ever seen the far side Of a mountain swallow the sky As you travel through the valley As your'e speedin' still far behind Through the valley where lovers climb Have you ever seen the locust Clean his wings right after a plague Like ascendin' of a dark cloud In the sunlight to end the day To kill the sunlight to end the day Yes, it will follow the rain Have you ever seen the quiet Indecision of a man When he's standing by the fire With an eager friend in his hand Oh will he ever quite understand That it will follow the rain I said oh, my friend, it will follow the rain Have you ever seen your baby Getting caught by the lonesome wind And the whistling round the corners Telling you they have let her in Separation can now begin Yes, it will follow the rain I said oh, my friend, it will follow the rain I said oh, my friend, it will follow the rain Have you ever seen the far side Of a mountain swallow the sky As you travel through the valley As you're speedin' still far behind Through the valley where lovers climb Where the children will blink and sigh They have caught a lightning strike In a jar just to watch it die In the valley where lovers climb Yes, it will follow the rain I said oh, my friend, it will follow the rain
