Slowly crawling 'cross the floor
Comes a shadow through the window
From the house next door
And the dust specks dancing
In the last of the light
One more evening passing
She walked on tiptoes
On a gravel bar
Wet skin pale as the evening star
The North Platte winding like a silver eel
Hands like rain on August fields
(chorus)
Hands like rain
Falling soft
To ease the drought inside
As memory fades
Not much remains
But hands like rain
Now I stand on stiff legs
And I clutch the cane
And I search the sky for a sign of rain
As if it matters
As if it makes a damn
Just an old man's habit
Comes a shadow through the window
From the house next door
And the dust specks dancing
In the last of the light
One more evening passing
She walked on tiptoes
On a gravel bar
Wet skin pale as the evening star
The North Platte winding like a silver eel
Hands like rain on August fields
(chorus)
Hands like rain
Falling soft
To ease the drought inside
As memory fades
Not much remains
But hands like rain
Now I stand on stiff legs
And I clutch the cane
And I search the sky for a sign of rain
As if it matters
As if it makes a damn
Just an old man's habit
