LOVE RAIN DOWN ON UKRAINE
About Rob & Julio, and the Song for Ukraine
In May, 2022, Julio (Garcia) had a nightmare about the real-life nightmare going on in Ukraine. Upon awakening, he turned it into the seed for a song expressing the sorrow, anger, and indignation we're all feeling. Julio felt he could use some help finishing the song, so he reached out to his friend Rob (Freeman), who added his musical and lyrical touch to it. Rob ended up producing the recording of this amazing song (well, we think it is!) as well as creating the homespun music video for it. The duo wrote and recorded the entire project without actually meeting in person until after it was completed when they finally got together to shoot the music video. The result of their collaboration is "Love Rain Down on Ukraine," and the accompanying "Lluvia de Amor Para Ucrania," with Spanish lyrics crafted by Julio.
By the way, any proceeds from the song will be donated to aid Ukrainian refugees.
SONG LYRICS
I WROTE A SONG THIS MORNING
PRETENDING IT WAS A GREAT DAY
I COULDN’T SLEEP AT ALL LAST NIGHT
WAS CAUGHT IN A NIGHTMARE
I DREAMT ABOUT VLADIMIR PUTIN
AND STARED RIGHT IN HIS EYES
I COULDN’T GUESS HIS INTENTIONS
A KILLER IN DISGUISE
I’M SO SORRY ABOUT UKRAINE
SO MANY PEOPLE DYING IN VAIN
MY HEART BLEEDS FOR UKRAINE
IT’S HARD TO EASE SO MUCH PAIN
WHEN IT HURTS OVER AND OVER AGAIN
LET LOVE REIGN IN UKRAINE
NOW, WE’VE SEEN THE FACE OF EVIL
WILL MANKIND EVER LEARN
IT EATS AND DRINKS, IT SMILES AND LAUGHS
WHILE WATCHING CITIES BURN
ANGER BOILING OVER UKRAINE
IT’S LIKE THE WHOLE WORLD’S GOING INSANE
‘TIL ONLY BROKEN SOULS REMAIN
SEND A MESSAGE LOUD AND PLAIN
THIS MUST NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN
LOVE RAIN DOWN ON UKRAINE
THIS OLD WORLD CAN BE SUCH A LIVING HELL
WHAT WILL IT TAKE TO BREAK THE DEVIL’S SPELL
SING A SONG OF HOPE FOR UKRAINE
LET IT RISE ABOVE THE FLAMES
OUR HEARTS AS ONE WITH UKRAINE
SEND THE MESSAGE LOUD AND PLAIN
NO, THIS MUST NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN
LOVE RAIN DOWN ON UKRAINE
ON UKRAINE
ON UKRAINE
OH, UKRAINE
OH, UKRAINE
