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

& I want you so bad in my heart

& I touch your shadowed fingers in the dark

& 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

& I want you so bad in my heart

& I touch your shadowed fingers in the dark

& 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

& In your sunlit eyes

I see my love and all the night

& I want you so bad in my heart

& I touch your shadowed fingers in the dark

& the stars have fallen on this night like rain

In the silence of the dark october lanes
