Heavy Cloud No Rain Lyrics - Ten Summoner's Tales - Sting

Turned on the weather man just after the news 

I needed sweet rain to wash away my blues 

He looked at the chart but he look in vain 

Heavy cloud but no rain 

Back in time with Louis XVI 

At the court of the people he was number one 

He'd be the bluest blood they'd ever seen 

When the king said hi to the guillotine 

The royal astrologer was run out of breath 

He thought that maybe the rain would postpone his death 

He look in sky but he look in vain 

Heavy cloud but no rain

Well the land was cracking and the river was dry 

All the crops were dying when they ought to be high 

So to save his farm from the banker's draft 

The farmer took out a book on some old witchcraft 

He made a spell and a potion on a midsummer's night 

He killed a brindled calf in the pale moonlight 

He prayed to the sky but he prayed in vain 

Heavy cloud but no rain 

Heavy cloud but no rain 

The sun won't shine till the clouds are gone 

The clouds won't go till their work is done 

And every morning you'll hear me pray 

If only it would rain today

I asked my baby if there'd be some way 

She said she'd save her love for a rainy day 

I look in the sky but I look in vain 

Heavy cloud but no rain
