Ballet For a Rainy Day (Remastered 2001)
Orange and lemon raincoats roll and tumble
Together, just like fruit tipped from a tray
Pineapple wet heads watch new hairdos crumble
As scenery sunlight shifts away
Ballet for a rainy day
Silent film of melting miracle play
Apples and cherries are varnished in water (apples and cherries)
Despite striped awnings, bright dismay
I push my paintbrush to conjure a new world (I push my paintbrush)
While this one is slowly washed away
Ballet for a rainy day
Silent film of melting miracle play
Dancing out there through my window
To the backdrop of a slow descending grey
When it rains, it rains all the colours in my paintbox
When it rains, it rains tickets for the front-row seats up on the rooftops
Orange and lemon raincoats roll and tumble (apples and cherries)
Together, dropped in diamond disarray
Ballet for a rainy day
Silent film of melting miracle play
Dancing out there through my window
Behind the curtain, silver falling
Ballet for a rainy day
Silent film of melting miracle play
Dancing out there through my window
To the backdrop of a slow descending grey
Together, just like fruit tipped from a tray
Pineapple wet heads watch new hairdos crumble
As scenery sunlight shifts away
Ballet for a rainy day
Silent film of melting miracle play
Apples and cherries are varnished in water (apples and cherries)
Despite striped awnings, bright dismay
I push my paintbrush to conjure a new world (I push my paintbrush)
While this one is slowly washed away
Ballet for a rainy day
Silent film of melting miracle play
Dancing out there through my window
To the backdrop of a slow descending grey
When it rains, it rains all the colours in my paintbox
When it rains, it rains tickets for the front-row seats up on the rooftops
Orange and lemon raincoats roll and tumble (apples and cherries)
Together, dropped in diamond disarray
Ballet for a rainy day
Silent film of melting miracle play
Dancing out there through my window
Behind the curtain, silver falling
Ballet for a rainy day
Silent film of melting miracle play
Dancing out there through my window
To the backdrop of a slow descending grey
