Joni Mitchell - Rainy Night House Lyrics

Artist: Joni Mitchell

Album: Miscellaneous

  • Songwriters: 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
