"Rain Garden" lyrics

"Rain Garden"

The rain garden in the parking lot
Behind the Coney Island
Silent cars astray, pregnant with lonely riders
Scrolling the hours
I was a witness
They'll say it's just a Tuesday
But loneliness can maim

The rain garden under sodium lights
The water flowing
Beyond the pines, servants of the forest
Dancing mazurkas
I am by myself
They'll say it's just a rainy night
But loneliness can harm

The rain garden gave me an answer
Though it yielded not
But two doves of mourning, a half-full Baja Blast
A sunset receding
I am deserving of love
They'll say it's just a love song
But love, but love has found me
Clay-birthed, shale-born
They found me

They came to the city searching for me
My love found me
They have a neck of jewels
Their mind is gold and silver
My love is a feast
I am drunk on them
We sleep
Honey on the lips
Sugar under the tongue
In the vineyards of the night
They are the queen of the night

O my love, my love
O my love, my love
Make way for my love
My love
Make way for my love
O my love
Make way for my love
My love

Kiss me
Kiss me before I go
Kiss me, kiss me
Kiss me before I go
Kiss me, kiss me
Kiss me before I go
Kiss me, kiss me
Kiss me
