Lyrics
Rainy Day In June
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
A misty shadow spread its wings
And covered all the ground
And even though the sun was out
The rain came pouring down
And all the light had disappeared
And faded in the gloom
There was no hope, no reasoning
This rainy day in June
The eagle spread its mighty wings
And pounced upon its pray
And all the skies, so brilliant blue
Turned suddenly to grey
The cherished things are perishing
And buried in their tomb
There is no hope, no reasoning
This rainy day in June
And everybody felt the rain
Everybody felt the rain
Everybody felt the rain
Everybody felt the rain
The demon stretched its crinkled hand
And snatched a butterfly
The elves and gnomes were hunched in fear
Too terrified to cry
The reckoning was beckoning
They're living to their doom
There was no hope, no reasoning
This rainy day in June
And everybody felt the rain
Everybody felt the rain
Everybody felt the rain
Everybody felt the rain
