Because of You I'M In a Seattle Kind of Mood

Because of you, I'm in a Seattle kind of mood When I look out my window And see the rain drops gently falling all around And I feel that special Seattle kind of chill In my bones I think of you with a Seattle kind of mood In the morning Wherever I am in this crazy world if I see raindrops Gently falling all around Blue mood dissolves in the rain's gentle mist And I cry out with all my heart Because of you I am in a Seattle kind of mood As I walk down the street In distant foreign lands Whether I am in Bangkok, Taipei, Tokyo or Seoul New York, Moscow, Rome or San Francisco Whether I am in India, China, Thailand or Europe Whenever I feel the rain's gentle embrace I get into that Seattle kind of mood Seattle, a Seattle kind of mood Fresh Salmon sizzling over a hickory smoke fire Ivar's clam chowder And Red Hook Ale Pike place market Bums in Pioneer square And angry hippies preaching in Red Square Yuppies drinking downtown Geeks in Redmond Making the world safe For the Microsoft King And the Mariners loose again While the Huskies dream of Rose Bowls too come And ever where rain falling down oh yeah A Seatt1e kind of mood Because of you I get into that Seattle kind of mood In the morning As I fight the horrendous traffic And breathe in deadly, killer air I cough, cough, and remember The green, green air of Seattle And because of you, I get into that Seattle kind of mood Seattle, Seattle, kind of mood The Huskies are number one in my heart While the Mariners are always last in the nation But what the hell I'm in a Seattle kind of mood I sit in the International District Eating Dim Sum and drinking Ballad bitter Watching the crowds dodge the ever present rain drops Seattle Kind of mood As I wake up each day in crazy foreign lands I hear the falling raindrops calling me home Oh why did you leave me they cry out In a Seattle sort of voice Whispering in the gently falling rain Seattle, Seattle kind of mood And so my Dear Wherever I roam in this wide planet of ours From here to entreaty And beyond All the way to the red plains of Mars Whenever I hear the gentle patter of raindrops I'll get into that Seattle kind of mood And dream of spending eternity with you Watching the Seattle rain Gently falling on our bumbershoots As we walk down the beach hand in hand Digging the gooey ducks while drinking Rainier Ale All because of you I'll always be in the Seattle kind of mood
