Monsoon Rain

"Monsoon Rain"

by Randy Dill

Udorn Handler - 1973 

Woke last night, you were calling out my name

Once in Nam, you don't come back the same

V.A. doctor told me I'm not insane

There's a tiger in my brain

Monsoon rain it's that time of year.

All those memories go crashing thru my mind

They come flashing you never know what time

V.A. doctor told me there's a tiger in my mind

Can't see it guess I must be blind

Monsoon rain it's that time of year.

Went to D.C. stood before the wall

Took the time to read the names of all

As I turned, thought I heard you call

V.A. doctor told me I'm not insane

There's a tiger in my brain

Monsoon rain it's that time of year

Monsoon rain running down my beard

Monsoon rain concealing all my fears

Monsoon rain wash away these tears
