Lyric

Shadow on the Rain

KENJI TAMURA

Rain keeps falling on this lonely street

Every drop remembers where we used to meet

Your footsteps faded like an old refrain

Now all I hear are shadows on the rain

That old guitar still leans against the wall

Waiting for a voice that never calls

Every chord I play still speaks your name

But every note just burns into the flame

Time keeps moving... I stand still

Trying to outrun what I never will

I'm crying to the midnight sky

As another dream goes drifting by

Your memory cuts me like a knife

Leaving scars across my life

If love was fire, I'm ashes now

Still wondering where and how

All that's left when hope has gone

Are shadows on the rain

If tomorrow brings another dawn

Will it find me carrying on?

Or will these roads forever lead

Back to the ghost you used to be?

I'm crying to the midnight sky

Watching every star say goodbye

Though the world keeps turning slow

You're the only home I'll ever know

The blues keep singing through my soul

And they never let me go

    Shadow on the Rain

    KENJI TAMURA

It has been 34 years since John Moore moved from the U.S. to Japan. Having spent that time singing the blues in small bars, he has finally teamed up with Kenji Tamura. Their soulful guitar and vocals resonate through the rainy city streets at night. This is classic blues that brings a sense of peace and tenderness to the heart.
