Rainy Night Sunday has been featured several times by Tom Robinson on his BBC Introducing show on BBC6music. He has variously described the song as "gorgeous" and a "long-standing favourite of this show". christopher says it is dedicated to a dear childhood friend he lost touch with and has missed ever since.
Rainy Night Sunday (rye)
rainy night, sunday
just shadows in the park
lamplight on your windows
and headlights in the dark
I'm walking between the pavement cracks
and hiding from the cars
you think I'd died on broadway
not in the old queen's arms
it's raining, it's pouring, this old town is snoring
me and you, we know too much
we're too young to grow up sad
no matter what life shows us
we'll not be coming back
it's raining, it's pouring, this old town is snoring
a rainy night, it's sunday
just shadows in the park
lamplight on your windows
and headlights in the dark
you'll never leave
the angel said
you'll not get out alive
oh yes I will, just watch me!
you're not the only one can fly
it's raining, it's pouring, this old town is snoring
a rainy night, it's sunday
just shadows in the park
lamplight on your windows
and headlights in the dark
there's no stars up in the sky.
