rain

Rain
Soft in the dark
We take a left thru the deepening park
Grass
Soaking and warm
Past the iron gates
August has come

And I want you so bad in my heart
And I touch your shadowed fingers in the dark
And the stars have fallen on this night like rain
In the silence of the dark october lanes

Iron
Cold in the breeze:
The gate beneath the haunted trees
Swings
As evening reveals
Your face so lovely and unreal

And I want you so bad in my heart
And I touch your shadowed fingers in the dark
And the stars have fallen on this night like rain
In the silence of the dark october lanes
So here everything stays
The dew on the gates has melted away

And in your sunlit eyes I see my love and all the night
And I want you so bad in my heart
And I touch your shadowed fingers in the dark
And the stars have fallen on this night like rain
In the silence of the dark october lanes


[it started to rain this afternoon while I was listening to the clientele, amazing!]
