Just outside my window I hear the late September dogs

And I understand their warning, I understand their song

Since you left I feel the change in the air

And night after night I'm searching for mercy everywhere

So I wake in the street and I call out your name

I shout to the sky, please



(CHORUS)

Come on let it rain, let it rain down on me

Let the rain touch my hands, let the rain set me free

Let it rain down on me



Silence is the steel that pierces and cuts me to the bone

In dreams the hand that touches you is mine and mine alone

Cruel is the light is the morning shining down on me

Hours with the Devil to understand just what you need

So I wake in the street and I call out your name

Shout to the sky come on



Come on let it rain, let it rain down on me

Let the rain fill my eyes, let the rain set me free

Let it rain down on me



Just inside the distance I hear the late September dogs

And so I beg for sleep the child who walked before she crawled

Damn my soul that remembers and clutches to this pain

The spear in your side is me



(CHORUS)
