Rainy Night House Lyrics

Joni Mitchell

It was a rainy night, we took a taxi to your mother's home She went to Florida and left you with your father's gun, alone Upon her small white bed, I fell into a dream You sat up all the night and you watched me Just to see who in the world I might be
I am from the Sunday school I sing soprano in the upstairs choir You are a holy man on the F.M. radio I sat up all the night and I listened to thee Just to see who in the world you might be And what you might mean to me
You called me beautiful, you called your mother, she was very tanned So you packed your tent and you went to live out in the Arizona sand You are a refugee from a wealthy family You gave up all your fathers golden factories Just to see who in the world you might be, who in the world
