Walkin' In The Rain (VOCAL)

about

"Walkin' In The Rain"(1988) is a beautiful, lovely, warm song & recording. Like "Lady In Red". Track one on "LIFE and DEATH", by Recording Artist Neil Elliott Dorval (Release: November 2020). Alter ego project. Recorded in Philadelphia, PA, in the late 80s, on Yamaha 4track mt2x, with 1st generation Yamaha DX7 Keyboard. Mastered in 2020 from the 2 track cassette mix. "Walkin' In The Rain" would have fit well on Neil's debut singer songer CD, "Underneath The Moon Stars". However, the songs on "LIFE and DEATH", have only been rediscovered in 2020 from lost Philadelphia archives. - along with a treasure chest of other song demos. Stay tuned!

Features 20 year Grover Washington Jr. mainstay guitarist, the superb talented recording artist Richard Lee Steacker; on acoustic guitar.

Simply Beautiful!

lyrics

“WALKIN’ IN THE RAIN”
Words & Music: Neil Elliott Dorval

Copyright March 4, 1988

Verse:
A Casanova Romeo, it looked like this one wouldn’t go - wouldn’t go away. A look, a smile, a chance to find, a certain something, They would not leave - they would not leave behind.

Bridge:
It’s like a love she’d never know, of which nothing could contend. It’s what she always wanted, she got it from a friend - she got it from a friend

Chorus:
They’d go walking in the rain, back & forth they’d sway, laughing all the way

Verse:
Throughout the miles and over time,
They came to understand, this light they knew, would always shine
Days would come and nights would pass
Strength between them grew they had been saved, saved at last

Bridge:
It’s like a love she’d never know, of which nothing could content.
It’s what she always wanted, she got it from a friend - she got it from a friend

Chorus:
They’d go walking in the rain, back & forth they’d sway, laughing all the way

Bridge:
It’s like a love she’d never know, of which nothing could content.
It’s what she always wanted, she got it from a friend - she got it from a friend
