Lyrics
Lyrics by Richard Hawley (2001)

Look into my eyes
And stay for a while
We can close our eyes, love
And let the dreams come softly
Can you hear the rain, love?
Fall on your window
Can you hear the rain, love?
Gently fall
Here comes another tear
For the silence in me
And as its darkness clears
I wake you gently singing
Can you hear the rain, love?
Fall on your window
Can you hear the rain, love?
Gently fall
Oh it seems so far away
Oh it seems so far away
Oh it seems so far away

Whenever I click on one of your songs I’m always impressed with your musicianship and your soulfulness. This is no exception. Well done my friend.

a nice mood, nice balance and space, and the vocal feels authentic and believable, I think some reverb or delay or something is obscuring the vocal a little, and I'd love to hear it more clearly
there are certain moments where pitches almost shift out of tune on an instrument or voice in certain ways that feel very purposeful and whether or not they are I think they are beautiful and creative and I almost never hear it in anything like this, but to me it complements the song wonderfully and conveys a truth that most won't touch

Very emotionally displayed! I hear the longing, and the wanting. So far away .... superbly sung!

@Venturesome Thank you very much, Mark !
@Bowman Charlie, your words means a lot. Thank you !
@Moses Thanks a lot ! You have a fine ear, Sir ! The 'almost out of tune' thing has become some sort of obsession for me. My punk-rock youth denies me to sound too clean ... so i experiment a lot when i record. And i found a setup that allows me to play high tones on guitar, through a reverse echo and high pass filter. The result is some pedal-steel from outter space. But with a random slight delay (1 sec), so it gets ghostly and i like it like that...
@StanTheManLoh Thanks a lot my friend !
@JanaSaisQuoi Thank you Jana, nice to see your name again around here !
@TrebleFace Many thanks for your support !
@Sprout You're too kind ! Thank you very much !

I'm not familiar with the original.
This has a very Nick Cave sound to it, it actually could be on one of his albums.
Awesome work Dyl along with Petra's beautiful voice to compliement your piece.
An instant fave and a downloaded one to!

Beautiful work!
May I ask if you were to remix this, bring up the snare drum up another 1-2dB. 
Apart from that stunning work and your vocals are top notch!
Loving the airy backing vocals too!
And the final touch of the piano at the end is pure perfection.

@BeekeeperPiotr thank you very much ! As you know so well, the choices for a mix are endless... and - as it happens - i had that snare up in a previous version, but it felt 'little too much'... So maybe it was not ... Or it was ... Or ? 🤪
