lyrics

The Ringing of the Rain

My heart is hidden beneath the alabaster
Warnin’ the forbidden of impending disaster
My soul is still pining beneath creeping shadow
She’s always shining through my ghostly hollows

And in a dream she’s waving from a train
That always leaves to the ringing of the rain

Tossed in the swirling waves of her laughter
She’s dancing she’s twirling and I drown ever faster
I see her face in all her heated glory
I’ve taken my place by the fire of her story

Her story
An amazing blazing flight
Exploring
Like a rocket to the night
She’s a rocket to the night
She’s a rocket to the night
To the night!

A storm is brewin’ flashes are flyin’
Darkness is chewin’ a rose-colored skyline
And I see her face gaze far into the West
Gone is the faith in the heart of my chest

It’s not a dream She’s waving from a train
That always leaves to the ringing of the rain
She always leaves to the ringing of the rain
She always leaves to the ringing of the rain
