AFTER THE FACT
(Stephen Bruton)

The radio says more rain today as if it's overdue
But that rain has a lonesome sound
Every time I think of you

I hear it's raining where you are tonight
Is your pillow soft and warm?

Well are you lonely or are you laughing
Or are you sleeping in somebody's arms

It doesn't seem so long ago
It never does looking back
After the fact of losing love
Can cause some rain to fall
And turn your sunny skies back to gray
When the wind When you win (JRO) it's a brand new trail
But when you lose
You know that losing hurts the same old way

It doesn't seem so long ago
It never does looking back
After the fact of losing love

Fades saying Losin' love several times

Note from Joe Offer: Harry Fox Agency says this song was written by Stephen Bruton and recorded by Kris Kristofferson. I compared transcription with this recording: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I2omamidMQ0
