The Grateful Dead - Looks Like Rain
Awoke today, felt your side of the bed
The covers were still warm where you'd been layin'
You were gone, my heart was filled with dread
You might not be sleeping here again
★ Chorus ★
It's alright, 'cause I love you
That's not gonna change
Run me around and make me hurt again and again
But I'll still sing you love songs
Written in the letters of your name
The rain is starting to come, oh, it surely looks like rain
★ Verse 2 ★
Did you ever waken to the sound of street cats making love?
You guess from their cries you were listening to a fight
Well, you know, oh, oh, hate's just the last thing they're thinking of
You're only tryin' to make it through the night
★ Instrumental Break ★
★ Verse 3 ★
I only wanna hold you, I don't wanna tie you down
Or fit you in the lines I might've drawn
It's just that I, I, have gotten used to havin' you around
My landscape would be empty if you were gone
★ Chorus ★
It's alright, 'cause I love you
That's not gonna change
Run me around and make me hurt again and again
But I'll still sing you love songs
Written in the letters of your name
The rain is gonna come, oh, it surely looks like rain
★ Outro ★
Rain is starting to come 'cause it surely looks like rain
And everywhere the people saying, "Well, here come the rain"
Surely gray, surely looks like rain
'Cause it looks like rain and it feels like rain
And oh, oh, turning gray and it looks like rain
'Cause everywhere the people saying, "Well, here come the rain"
Turning gray and it surely looks like rain
Well, it looks like rain and it feels like rain
And oh, oh, whole world's turning gray and it looks like rain
Oh, everywhere the people saying, "Here comes the rain"
Looks like rain and it feels like rain
Oh, and here comes the rain

Biography
Over the years the Dead released 22 recorded albums, although they were most famous for their improvisational jams at concerts, earning them a cult-like following of self-proclaimed “Dead Heads” who would follow the band from concert-to-concert throughout the band’s career.
The band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1994 and they’ve sold more than 40 million albums in total; all that with only one top 40 hit (“Truckin”), and one Top 10 hit (“Touch of Grey”) that came near the end of the band’s run, shortly before Jerry Garcia’s death in 1995. Grateful Dead was also ranked 57th in Rolling Stone’s “The Greatest Artists of All Time” issue in 2004 and 2005. Since then, various incarnations of the Dead have continued to tour, although a 2015 farewell tour was said to be the band’s last.
In 2015 Bob Weir, Mickey Hart, and Bill Kreutzmann started a new group called Dead and Company with John Mayer, Allman Brothers bassist Oteil Burbridge, and former Dead keyboardist Jeff Chimenti which Weir has said may have a future in the studio and will continue to tour in coming years.
In 2008, The Grateful Dead named the University of California, Santa Cruz McHenry Library as the home of their complete archival history, including their recorded music, live bootlegs, and artworks. The collections are are now housed at UC Santa Cruz.
