James Taylor's Fire and Rain Sung by Christine Rosander

A tribute to James Taylor


Just yesterday morning, they let me know you were gone.
Suzanne 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 on me, Jesus.
You gotta help me make a stand.
You 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.

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.

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.

[PapaDocN3D]

many people like only what they're comfortable with. Your cover it very nice. much more of a lament, and more complicated than James Taylor's song. you don't need me to write that you have talent. I think it's great that you painted this great song with differant colors. ;)

Your version of this song brings tears to my eyes. So beautiful...

[rOmIrOmY92]

I have no words...

Such a Beautiful song!!

Sometimes... when I hear beautiful music and/or a beautiful voice... i'm feeling it, and i cry...

That happens when i hear you music, Christine... When i hear your voice, sometimes i want to cry!

But I'm a Big Girl, and Big Girls Don't Cry! x)

What am I saying? Maybe i'm 16, but I have the mind of a 5 years old girl!

so.. I'LL CRY!! =' )

When will I have the honor to sing with you, Christine? ;)
