Lyrics:
Here's to you and all our friends
May God protect us until the very end
All the places that we go
And everybody that we know
And every single living thing
The earth, the sky, the wind, the sea
Oh, I'm in love with you tonight
Yeah, I'm in love with life tonight
And you know it feels alright
So let it rain, let it rain
So let it rain, let it rain
So here's to you and all our friends
May God protect us, until the very end
I'm in love with you tonight
I'm in love with life tonight
And you know I think that's right
So let it rain, let it rain
So let it rain, let it rain

@stickswiper Yes, I totally agree. He can produce a strange mellow sound which seems to release endorphin. No need to be on the dope. Just listen to his style and you'll surely fly.

I quite like this. You can tell it's Roger's drumming a mile off. He just has a certain feel to his drumming that no one else has. Nice one Messers Taylor & Geldof!!

Definitely sounds like the 60's, reminiscent of the Beatles and a bit of Queen. Roger gives this song the little edge it needs. Love you Rog!

Sorry but I can't stand Geldof. Sure it's a nice song, and it would be better if Geldof wasnt singing.

Ace. Sounds like something off Roger Taylor's 'Happiness?' album. Too bad stuff like this doesn't get heard anymore. In the old days this would've been a Top 10 hit.
