Description
Ok here’s a live acoustic (guitar/mandola) version of Ahead of the Rain. This was us having a first bash at it and as the recorder was running I thought I’d leave the chat at the beginning on the recording. Our jamming sessions are never dull and always fun despite the arguments!! Cheers Mark

Lyrics
Ahead of the Rain
Woman with a pinched and scornful mouth
Do your features become your personality?
Sitting so still
Stone, stone cold
God never let me get that old
The mist hangs heavy on the hedgerows
Your breath hangs heavy on the air
Robins in cage
Heavens in a rage
But we’re not like you
We can make it through
We’re keeping just ahead of the rain
We’ve done just enough
To numb all the pain
She drifts back to places
Where it all began
To the woods and fields
Where she knows the land
She really can’t believe
That it’s come to this
Her heart beats faster
And her hand makes a fist
Robins in cage
Heavens in a rage
But we’re not like you
We can make it through
We’re keeping just ahead of the rain
We’ve done just enough
To numb all the pain
