Fire and Rain

James Taylor at the Beacon Theatre, New York.
______________________________________

Just yesterday morning they let me know you were gone
Susanne the plans they made put an end to you
I walked out this morning and I wrote down this song
I just can't remember who to send it to

I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you again

Won't you look down upon me, Jesus
You've got to help me make a stand
You've just got to see me through another day
My body's aching and my time is at hand
And I won't make it any other way

Oh, I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you again

Been walking my mind to an easy time my back turned towards the sun
Lord knows when the cold wind blows it'll turn your head around
Well, there's hours of time on the telephone line to talk about things
to come
Sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground

Oh, I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you, baby, one more time again, now

Thought I'd see you one more time again
There's just a few things coming my way this time around, now
Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you fire and rain, now

  • They played this song on the radio today in State College and dedicated it to Joe Paterno. This song really fit him.

  • un grand compositeur de talent!! what a beautiful humble voice

  • For Alex

  • OH SHIT BIG ESSAY TO WRITE AND HAD THE IDEA TO LISTEN TO JAMES TAYLOR... ANY CHANCE OF THE ESSAY GETTING DONE?? I THINK NOT! 

  • Holy CRAP his voice is perfect. It's live, and it's perfect. Gloriously rare.

  • this is definately the most difficult to play guitar song on the planet. he makes it look so easy! well done!

  • James Taylor has always been one of my greatest inspirations. It was him and Mark Knopfler who made me record my on records. If you like, check them out by clicking my name.

  • Wow, this song never fails to make me stop... and just listen.

    He really nailed a sentiment with this one, even some of the nonsense lyrics just feel right.

  • He is just so good...what a soothing voice

  • "I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend. But I always thought that I'd see you again"
