about

Late Autumn Rain is an acoustic, retro sounding folk song with a slight country tilt, meaningful lyrics and strong harmonies.

Devon: This poignant, heart felt folk song was inspired by Emily Bronte's novel "Wuthering Heights" and the attraction between two opposites, the wild, Dionysian-like character Heathcliff and the more refined, gentle Catherine. This song is about what was ultimately a passionate, but destructive love. Many listeners have been in a position where they have come to a cross roads and must choose between a wild, rain-swept path or the other, which leads towards the sun, and will be able to relate to these lyrics.

lyrics

I woke up one November morning
To the tapping of the rain 
It sounded a little lonely
Against my window pane

I chased away the chill with coffee
Drew my chair up to the fireplace
Golden light was dancing
Across my hands and face

And then your letter came
In the autumn rain
Late autumn rain
Wash away my pain

I hear your voice a calling
An echoing, distant sound
But you know I will not follow
Staying here on higher ground

You always were a wild one
More restless than the wind
You never listened to anyone
Which led to the place I’m in

Alone again
In the autumn rain
Late autumn rain
Wash away my pain

Alone again
