I Sure Can Smell The Rain
(John Jarrard, Walt Aldridge)
She hasn't done a thing
That really has to mean she's going anywhere
I haven't seen it showing in her eyes
But I swear it must be there
I don't know why I feel it so strong
But I feel it just the same
I can't see a single storm cloud in the sky
But I sure can smell the rain
She'd still say "I love you" if I ask
But she never volunteers
Somehow what she never says
Means more than all other words I hear
Still she should win an Oscar
If she's lying when she says that nothings changed
I can't see a single storm cloud in the sky
But I sure can smell the rain
Every day I brace myself
To hear the words I'm scared she's gonna say
And every night I thank the Lord
Somehow I dodged a bullet one more day
Sometimes there are things a man just knows
That he really can't explain
I can't see a single storm cloud in the sky
But I sure can smell the rain
I can't see a single storm cloud in the sky
But I sure can smell the rain
