11. A Walk In The Rain

I lived in a painting by Renoir

Dined late in those sidewalk cafes

But lately I seem to be more inclined

For a walk in the rain

I dance to Grappelli and Django

Saw candlelight through beaujolais

But lately I seem to be more inclined

For a walk in the rain

We laughed at the weather

Out walking without umbrellas

How well I remember

You face when we walked in the rain

You know I was crazy about you

Some sadness caused me to unwind

Maybe I will meet you (if fate is kind)

On a walk in the rain
