Ray Davies - Rainy Day in June lyrics

[Verse 1] A misty shadow spread its wings And covered all the ground And even though the sun was out The rain came pouring down [Verse 2] And all the light had disappeared And faded in the gloom There was no hope, no reasoning This rainy day in June [Verse 3] The eagle spread its mighty wings And pounced upon its pray And all the skies, so brilliant blue Turned suddenly to grey [Verse 4] The cherished things are perishing And buried in their tomb There is no hope, no reasoning This rainy day in June [Chorus] And everybody felt the rain Everybody felt the rain Everybody felt the rain Everybody felt the rain [Verse 5] The demon stretched its crinkled hand And snatched a bu*terfly The elves and gnomes were hunched in fear Too terrified to cry [Verse 6] The reckoning was beckoning They're living to their doom There was no hope, no reasoning This rainy day in June [Chorus]
