Summer Rain

This is not a path that one can easily walk alone The absence of the love I left with her gonna chill me to the bone And it's already cold enough down here This is the way I start another year There's a song around, no one really does know the words But I think I heard the girl in the trailer park singing it to the birds Somethin' about 'if her heart is out there, come find her soon' I've been singing the part that I know to the man in the moon Singin' I'm lost and lonely, sir I'm not doin' well I been all across your lands and not heard my own name And I'd barter for some warmth tonight I've got some tales to sell If you'd send me down a buyer, I'd spend some time free of my shame Mine is not a life you could ever have envy of But I heard somewhere that a pigeon is the same bird as a dove And a mindset divides a sky rat and a sign of peace So maybe I'm looking for a dove that's underneath Her eyes are sharp, but they wash you like summer rain And nary a soul has watched me so since I been on that train I think she'd stay if I asked her, stay with me Closest place to a new home that I'll ever be Is hearin' her singin' I'm lost and lonely, sir I'm not doin' well I been all across your lands and not heard my own name And I'd barter for some warmth tonight I've got some tales to sell If you'd send me down a buyer, I'd spend some time free of my shame If you'd send me down a buyer, I'd spend some time free of my shame
