To all those dealing with Hurricane Irene, Bill Evans’s masterful interpretation of Jimmy Van Hueson’s and Johnny Burke’s Here’s that Rainy Day:
Maybe I should have saved
those left-over dreams
funny, but here’s that rainy day!
Here’s that rainy day
they told me about
and I laughed at the thought
that it might turn out this way!
Where is that worn-out wish
that I threw aside,
after it brought my lover near?
Funny how love becomes
a cold rainy day
funny, that rainy day is here!
Funny how love becomes
a cold rainy day
funny . . .
that rainy day is here!
