The song was written during what it's about - a summer rain. It's in the key of F minor.
Several strange sounds have been sampled for this song, for instance, a breath noise, and someones voice where all syllables are reversed (to generate nonsense).
Most melodic sounds are made by my Yamaha CS-5 music computer (4 op FM synth), with some help from a friends Juno-6 for some triggered arpeggio stuff and my analog imitation of sampled voices...
It's all one-take, i.e. what's not programmed, is played by me the same time I sing.
Intro: Fm
Verse:
Here I sit and think things over
Fm Eb
I think of me and you
Fm C
I could keep it up forever
Db Eb
I wonder if you could too
Db C
A summer rain outside my window
Fm Eb
and a gentle summer breeze
Fm C
makes me think upon your smile
Db Eb
as the wind runs thru the trees
Db C
Bridge: And now you say that you're mine
Bbm Fm
And I believe that it's true

I hope you won't be bad to me
Bbm Fm
and I would never

be bad to you

Summer rain, I know that you're mine now
Db Eb
Summer rain, I love you forever
Fm Ab
oh-oh-oh, you're my summer rain

Db Eb Db C
Verse: We have done so much together
Fm Eb
some tears may have had to fall
Fm C
but if you stay close to me
Db Eb
there will be no more tears at all
Db C
The only thing that I'll let fall
Fm Eb
is the gentle summer rain
Fm C
come to wipe away your sorrows
Db Eb
- take away the pain
Db C
Bridge: And now you say that you're mine
Bbm Fm
and I believe that it's so
Ab Eb
I don't think that I would survive

If I would ever

See you go
