Rain In Her Hair (Remastered)

Male vocal, ballad, country, pop country, acoustic guitar, melancholy, passionate

Verse 1

Winds from the west 
bend the wildflowers low
And the storm clouds rush in 
while the thunder rolls
As those first heavy drops
 hit the red clay ground
I light a cigarette
but I don’t make a sound

I can still smell the scent 
of her rain-soaked hair
Hints of jasmine and peaches
 and fresh country air
And I know that she’s gone
but she still lingers here
Every time those southern storms draw near

⸻

Chorus

And I still see her spinnin’
Hands lifted up high
Laughing’ like thunder
While lightnin’ streaks the sky
Hair stuck to her cheeks 
As she danced all around
Barefoot and fearless
As the the rain poured on down
Now she’s a memory
So I just stop and stare
At the ghost in the storm
With the rain in her hair

⸻

Verse 2

I take a deep breath
close my eyes and she’s there
That beautiful ghost 
with the rain in her hair
Her laughter still haunts me
years down the road
From that fateful moment
 I let her go

I thought I could tame her
didn’t want to try
Said some words that made 
that wild girl cry
Now every time 
thunder shakes the glass
I’m thrown back in time 
just to relive the past

⸻

Chorus

⸻

Bridge

Sometimes I wish 
all the thunder and rain
Would drown out the memory—
All the joy and the pain.
But every time 
those greys roll in,
She’s out there dancin’ 
all over again.
Hands to the sky 
like she’s dancin’ on air—
That beautiful ghost 
with the rain in her hair

⸻

Final Chorus

And I still see her spinnin’
hands lifted up high
Laughin’ like thunder 
while lightnin’ streaks the sky
Hair stuck to her cheeks 
as she danced all around
Barefoot and fearless 
as the rain poured on down

Now she’s just a memory
but I still stop and stare
At the ghost in the storm 
with rain in her hair…

She’s gone with the wind
but she’s still everywhere——
That wild, untamed spirit
with the rain in her hair…
