If you have even the slightest shred of emotion within you, you can’t fail to be moved by this song from Eva Cassidy.
The correct and accurate lyrics…
Early Morning Rain
In the early morning rain with a dollar in my hand
And an aching in my heart and my pockets full of sand
I’m a long way from home and I miss my loved ones so
In the early morning rain with no place to go
Out on runway number nine, big seven-o-seven set to go
But I’m stuck here on the ground where the cold winds blow
You can’t jump a jet plane like you can a freight train
So I’d best be on my way in the early morning rain
Hear her mighty engines roar, see the silver bird on high
She’s away and westward bound, far above my home she’ll fly
Where the morning rain don’t fall and the sun always shines
She’ll be flying past my home in about three hours time
In the early morning rain with a dollar in my hand
And an aching in my heart and my pockets full of sand
I’m a long way from home and I miss my loved ones so
In the early morning rain with no place to go
In the early morning rain with no place to go
