When all you see is seen through tears
The whole world seems as though it's crying
Rain eyes, that's how my world appears
One sunny day in Lou'siana
The clouds began to hover low
And darkness came in early evening
And brought a rain that would not go
I's just a child when mother told me
It seems your father's gone away
It's not his fault, my child, forgive him
I should have known he would not stay
You're so much like him and he loves you
But now his love's for only you
Although he forced himself to leave you
Forgiving me he could not do
Rain eyes that cloud the hope of sunshine
When everything is seen through tears
The whole world seems as though it's crying
Rain eyes, that's how my world appears
It rains all evening into nighttime
Then rains all night and through the day
My mother's eyes are weak from crying
Forgive her, she just lost her way
Since you've been gone her eyes have clouded
And darkness reigns her weary view
She'd see again from your returning
That God knows she's in love with you
One rainy day in Louisiana
The trade winds blew the clouds away
A mother heard her boy shout, "Father"
My God, 'tis him, he's come to stay
Rain eyes that blur the rays of sunshine When all you see is seen through tears The whole world seems as though it's crying Rain eyes, that's how my world appears One sunny day in Lou'siana The clouds began to hover low And darkness came in early evening And brought a rain that would not go I's just a child when mother told me It seems your father's gone away It's not his fault, my child, forgive him I should have known he would not stay You're so much like him and he loves you But now his love's for only you Although he forced himself to leave you Forgiving me he could not do Rain eyes that cloud the hope of sunshine When everything is seen through tears The whole world seems as though it's crying Rain eyes, that's how my world appears It rains all evening into nighttime Then rains all night and through the day My mother's eyes are weak from crying Forgive her, she just lost her way Since you've been gone her eyes have clouded And darkness reigns her weary view She'd see again from your returning That God knows she's in love with you One rainy day in Louisiana The trade winds blew the clouds away A mother heard her boy shout, "Father" My God, 'tis him, he's come to stay Explain Request ×
