Soon It’s Gonna Rain Lyrics by Kenneth Nelson, Rita Gardner

The Fantasticks (Original Cast Album)

0

[LUISA]
Hear how the wind begins to whisper
See how the leaves go streaming by
Smell how the velvet rain is falling
Out where the fields are warm and dry
Now is the time to run inside and stay
Now is the time to find a hideaway
Where we can stay

[MATT]
Soon it's gonna rain
I can see it
Soon it's gonna rain
I can tell
Soon it's gonna rain
What are we gonna do?

Soon it's gonna rain
I can feel it
Soon it's gonna rain
I can tell
Soon it's gonna rain
What'll we do with you?

We'll find four limbs of a tree
We'll build four walls and a floor
We'll bind it over with leaves
And duck inside to stay

[MATT & LUISA]
Then we'll let it rain
We'll not feel it
Then we'll let it rain
Rain pell-mell
And we'll not complain
If it never stops at all
We'll live and love
Within our own four walls

[MATT]
We'll find four limbs of a tree
We'll build four walls and a floor
We'll bind it over with leaves
And run inside to stay

[LUISA]
Soon it's gonna rain

[MATT]
Come run inside to stay

[LUISA]
Soon it's gonna rain

[MATT]
For soon it's gonna rain
I can see it, I can feel it
Run inside and

[MATT & LUISA]
Then we'll let it rain (Then we'll let it rain)
We'll not feel it
Then we'll let it rain (Then we'll let it rain)
Rain pell-mell

[MATT]
And we'll not complain

[LUISA]
Happy ending

[MATT]
If it never stops at all

[LUISA]
Then we'll let it rain
Why complain?
We'll live and love within our walls

[MATT]
Happily we'll live and love
No cares at all

[MATT & LUISA]
Happily we'll live and love
Within our castle walls
