Lyrics
Cold and Rainy Nights Johnny Maddox (Copyright 2001)
You were the sun and a rainbow in my life, whenever you smiled at me
Your touch was warm like the sunshine you see
I thought our love was full and free
Now suddenly my rain?s fallen down,
You?re make?n me feel all cloudy and gray
(Chorus)
It?s a cold and rainy night tonight
I?ve come home and you?ve left me in the night
Me and the kids?ll make it, we?ll be alright, it?s a cold and rainy night tonight
(Short break)
For many years our love was like a warm summer breeze
But in your letter, things changed
You?ve made me feel so low and dreary baby,
Tell me what mistakes we?ve made
I feel empty and cold, In the rain I stand alone, stand?n call?n your name
(Chorus)
It?s a cold and rainy night tonight, but tomorrow I?ll make my life alright
My rain has stopped, my sky is clear, I?ll never shed you another tear
(Full turn break) (1/2 Chorus)
My rain has stopped, the sky is clear, I?ll never shed you another tear
(Jam break to chorus)
Was a cold and rainy night last night, I?m sure my heart has seen the light
My rain has stopped, my sky is clear, I?ll never shed you another tear
