Lyrics The Clientele

The Clientele

Nothing Here Is What It Seems

Raindrops falling on my shoulder

Play me like a violin

Nightmares rising in the alleys

Nothing here is what it seems

Oh my darling oh my darling

Let me come into your life

Let the rain fall in the garden

Turn the darkness into light

I've been loving you for so long

I'm just a shadow of myself

I'm just a shadow of myself

Shadows standing on my doorstep

No one calls and nobody rings

Nightmares rising in the alleys

Ravens on my roof today

All the lovers in their doorways

Hollow faces chasing dreams

Irises bloom in the borders

Nightmares rising from our sleep

Let the rain fall in your garden

That's the only way death turns to life

That's the only way death turns to life
