Subject: Steve, for you.

Barry Manillow is another one of my faves. I was listening to the Barry Manilow Box set and heard this song that Barry re-did. As soon as I heard it I thought of Steve Perry. I think that Steve and Barry are somewhat alike when it comes to music. Barry said that Music was foremost in his life and that when anything came up against music the music always won hands down and that there is nothing better than when the music is right. I think Steve might agree on that.

Steve: This ones for you wherever you are. Honey you are one in million. Somewhere down the road I know our paths will cross it doesn't really matter when. I believe we will hear from you again and soon. With much love.

Pat


I Made it Through the Rain (unreleased alternate take 1980)

A true muscian plays
through all the rainy days
and somehow he survives
he keeps the music warm
protects it from the storm
until his luck arrives
then he feels the sun appear
getting him through those weathered beaten years.

I made it through the rain
kept my songs protected
I made it through the rain
I kept my point of view
I made it through the rain
and found myself respected
by the others who got rained on too
they made it through.

No matter how it rains
the true muscian plays
cause music must be made
before you draw the crowd
you pour your heart out loud
and start your own parade
and when you played the clouds away
and that's when you know that you can finally say.

I made it through the rain
I kept my songs protected
I made it through the rain
I kept my point of view
I made it through the rain
and found myself respected
by the others who got rained on too
and made it through.

I made it through the rain
I kept my songs protected
I made it through the rain
and kept my point of view
I made it through the rain
and found myself respected
by the others who got rained on too
and made it through...
and made it through...
and made it through.
