Lyrics Rainy Night in Soho - Damien Dempsey, The Dubliners

Rainy Night in Soho

I’ve been loving you a long time
Down all the years, down all the days
And I’ve cried for all your troubles
Smiled at your funny little ways
We watched our friends grow up together
And we saw them as they fell
Some of them fell into Heaven
Some of them fell into Hell
Well, I took shelter from a shower
And I fell into your arms
On a rainy night in Soho
The wind was whistling all its charms
I sang you all my sorrows
You told me all your joys
Whatever happened to that old song
To all those little girls and boys
Those little girls and boys
Sometimes I wake up in the morning
The gingerlady by my bed
Covered in a cloak of silence
I hear you talking in my head
Well I’m not singing for the future
And I’m not dreaming of the past
I’m not talking of the fist time
I’ll never dream about the last
Now the song is nearly over
We may never find out what it means
Still there’s a light I hold before me
You’re the measure of my dreams
You’re the measure of my dreams
The measure of my dreams
The measure of my dreams
