Monterey Rain Lyrics

Said you want to see a movie with this rain coming down? You said It’s all a movie When you’re in a strange town In a hotel room with a bible And a phone book The good news and the bad luck I said One is going to answer you said Jesus got my number I don’t know how Monterey Rain Neon and nostalgia Is all that’s left of this town Green cup and gold At the great feast A Lost Fugue sounding even now The tide comes in and the money does Who knows how it ever was? I said Memory is just a racket you said Everything is racket Even love somehow Monterey Rain Are you gonna hold the line? Leave your heart out on the weather side? Is there something left you hope to find Or is it gone? Alvarado up to Lighthouse No one around Lights change in the darkness They don’t make a sound We were smoking in the cold rain Standing underneath the overhang you said It’s never gonna be easy I said I don’t want it easy I just want to know how Monterey Rain
