Summer Rain

This is not a path that one can easily walk alone
The absence of the love I left with her gonna chill me to the bone
And it's already cold enough down here
This is the way I start another year

There's a song around, no one really does know the words
But I think I heard the girl in the trailer park singing it to the birds
Somethin' about 'if her heart is out there, come find her soon'
I've been singing the part that I know to the man in the moon

Singin'

I'm lost and lonely, sir
I'm not doin' well
I been all across your lands and not heard my own name
And I'd barter for some warmth tonight
I've got some tales to sell
If you'd send me down a buyer, I'd spend
some time free of my shame

Mine is not a life you could ever have envy of
But I heard somewhere that a pigeon is the same bird as a dove
And a mindset divides a sky rat and a sign of peace
So maybe I'm looking for a dove that's underneath

Her eyes are sharp, but they wash you like summer rain
And nary a soul has watched me so since I been on that train
I think she'd stay if I asked her, stay with me
Closest place to a new home that I'll ever be

Is hearin' her singin'

I'm lost and lonely, sir
I'm not doin' well
I been all across your lands and not heard my own name
And I'd barter for some warmth tonight
I've got some tales to sell
If you'd send me down a buyer, I'd spend some time free of my shame
If you'd send me down a buyer, I'd spend some time free of my shame
