Another boring post about the weather
It started raining when I got to work. When I got home Jenna asked me to check the weather widget to see what the weather would be like tomorrow.... more rain!
I love the rain. The sound, the smell. It makes me happy, especially after a very long and dry summer.

In my last post I wrote about how I felt on the first day of my arrival back to Libya after a month's absence. I said it was dirtier and...

ReplyDeleteI'm checking your blog everyday to know when i can wash my poor car
Rain in Libya is not boring at all! It's a big adventure! Where usually have been streets are now big lakes (how to pass through??), tonns of wet clothes on the rope will never dry and and I know hardly one house which is without water inside - coming trough the windows, doors or air condition.Not talking about the blackouts which are normal during such weather....
ReplyDeleteLong as I remember the rain been comin' down
ReplyDeleteClouds of mystery pourin' confusion on the ground.
Good men through the ages tryin' to find the sun.
And I wonder still I wonder who'll stop the rain.
I went down Tripoli seekin' shelter from the storm
Caught up in the fable I watched the tower grow
Five year plans and new deals wrapped in golden chains.
And I wonder still I wonder who'll stop the rain.
Heard the shoppers shop, how we cheered for more.
The crowd had rushed together tryin' to keep warm.
Still the rain kept pourin', fallin' on my ears
And I wonder, still I wonder who'll stop the rain.
Take a photograph,
ReplyDeleteIt'll be the last,
Not a dollar or a crowd could ever keep me here,
I don't have a past
I just have a chance,
Not a family or honest plea remains to say,
Rain rain go away,
Come again another day,
All the world is waiting for the sun.
Is it you I want,
Or just the notion
Of a heart to wrap around so I can find my way around
Safe to say from here,
Your getting closer now,
We are never sad cause we are not allowed to be
Rain rain go away,
Come again another day,
All the world is waiting for the sun.
Rain rain go away,
Come again another day,
All the world is waiting for the sun.
To lie here under you,
Is all that I could ever do,
To lie here under you is all,
To lie here under you is all that i could ever do,
To lie here under you is all,
Rain rain go away,
Come again another day,
All the world is waiting for the sun.
Rain rain go away,
Come again another day,
All the world is waiting for the sun,
All the world is waiting for the sun,
All the world is waiting for the sun.
She took all my money
ReplyDeleteAnd my best friend
You know the story
Here it comes again
I have no pride
I have no shame
You gotta make it rain
Make it rain!
Since you're gone
Deep inside it hurts
I'm just another sad guest
On this dark earth
I want to believe
In the mercy of the world again
Make it rain, make it rain!
The nite's too quiet
Stretched out alone
I need the whip of thunder
And the wind's dark moan
I'm not Able, I'm just Cain
Open up the heavens
Make it rain!
I'm close to heaven
Crushed at the gate
They sharpen their knives
On my mistakes
What she done, you can't give it a name
You gotta make it rain
Make it rain, yeah!
Without her love
Withour your kiss
Hell can't burn me
More than this
I'm burning up all this pain
Put out the fire
Make it rain!
I'm born to trouble
I'm born to fate
Inside a promise
I can't escape
It's the same old world
But nothing looks the same
Make it rain! [2x]
Got to make it rain
Make it rain
You got to make it rain
Got to make it rain
You got to...
I stand alone here! [2x]
Sing it...
Make it rain! [2x]
Tom Waits, "Make it Rain"
Singing in the rain!
