This next song is called "I Have Seen the Rain", and it was Written by my daddy, Mr. Jim Moore
Ah, he wrote it back in Vietnam about 40 years ago and I grew up singing it with him at different Vietnam vet Functions
It's how I learned to harmonize and how to love an Acoustic guitar
And the way that we recorded it, it was my dads first time In a recording studio. And he always said singers don't Have to work too hard, he changed his mind that day
Um, we did it live, him and I in the vocal booth together Him playing and singing and me harmonizing. One take Straight through
Um, that was really, really a good time. It was really Special to be able to record a song with my dad. The first Song I ever learned
Um, we hope you like it and dedicate it to all the vets out There
I have seen the rain
I have felt the pain
I don't know where I'll be tomorrow
I don't know where I'm going
I don't even know where I've been
But I know I'd like to see them again
Spend my days just searching
Spend my nights in dreams
Stop looking over my shoulder, baby
I stopped wondering what it means
Drop out, burn out, sold your home
Oh they said I should've been more
Probably so if I hadn't been in
That crazy damn Vietnam war
I have seen the rain
I survived the pain
Oh I've been home 30 years or so
And I'm just stepping off of the plane
Spend my days in searching
Spend my nights in dreams
Stop looking over my shoulder, baby
I stopped wondering what it means
Drop out, burn out, sold your home
Oh they said I should've been more
Probably so if I hadn't been in
That crazy damn Vietnam war
We have seen the rain together
We survived the pain forever
Oh it's good to be home again
It's good to be with my friends
Oh it's good to be home again
It's good to feel the rain
