In this restored footage of ‘James Taylor In Concert’, James performs his classic “Fire and Rain” on the popular BBC series In Concert on November 16, 1970.
‘In Concert’ was produced by the BBC in the early ’70s and featured performances from legendary acts of the time. In November 1970, James was 22 years old and his second studio album ‘Sweet Baby James’, featuring “Fire and Rain”, had released earlier that same year.

LYRICS
Just yesterday morning
They let me know you were gone
Suzanne, the plans we made put an end to you
I walked out this morning
And I wrote down this song
Just can’t remember who to send it to
I’ve seen fire and I’ve seen rain
I’ve seen sunny days I thought they’d never end
I’ve seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought I’d see you again
Won’t you look down on me, Jesus
You’ve got to help me to make a stand
You just got to see me through another day
My body’s aching
And my time is at hand
And I won’t make it any other way
Oh, I have seen fire and I’ve seen rain
I’ve seen sunny days I thought they’d never end
I’ve seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought I’d see you again
So I’ve been walking my mind to an easy time
My back turned towards the sun
Lord knows the cold wind blows
It’ll turn your head around
Well, there’s hours of time on the telephone line
Talkin’ about things to come
Sweet dreams and flying machines
in pieces on the ground
Oh, I have seen fire and I’ve seen rain
I’ve seen sunny days I thought they’d never end
I’ve seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought I’d see you somehow one more time again
Thought I’d see you one more time again
There’s just a few things coming my way this time around
Thought I’d see you, thought I’d see you, fire and rain
Thought I’d see you just one more time, Suzanne
