Before the Rain - DNDM

A stormy summer Is rolling closer Lighting up this holy smoker And if this drinking Could ease the thinking I toast to my home truth with this glass All rise you promises broken Call my lovers by their names Lost hearts and words that are spoken to the wind Which blows before the rain Little pin-pricks And how my ears bleed On the bomb ticks that is my heartbeat In every car crash In every life-flash I hear the silence waiting to fall All rise you promises broken Call my lovers by their names Lost hearts and words that are spoken to the wind Which blows before the rain For all I carry These murdered secrets The price of my blue star-eyed weakness And so we travel And we unravel Towards the place where all loose ends go All rise you promises broken Call my lovers by their names Lost hearts and words that are spoken to the wind Which blows before the rain

Heaven distorted Fell to the ground What were you thinking Head under water Who's gonna drown Slowly, but sinking I'm such a fool I'm not ok And every feeling hits me harder than a seven carriage train I'm just a loser Walk away Oh all I ever really dream of is that summer in the rain When our always was the only one we knew Blood did not stain Up above reality with you Never known pain There were clouds before rain There were clouds before rain, yeah I'll never get over it No matter what I do Thought i was helping But I was a fool for thinking you'd ever happy, In that tiny room And I'll envy forever Whoever's with you And I won't improve Got none to blame And every feeling hits me harder than a seven story pavement Its a movie, on replay And all it's ever gonna show me is our summer in the rain When our always was the only one we knew Blood did not stain Up above reality with you Never known pain There were clouds before rain There were clouds There were clouds, I saw clouds

First, things first And this is how it goes I gotta be ready by the time that you show Come back home, before my heart blows The more I think about it anticipation goes At night when we kiss I like it when we slow down And we pause for a round of applause You're a gift from heaven Forget Santa Clause The more I think about it anticipation goes Before Before you talk Before you walk Before you blink Before you think Even before you take off your coat Allow me to come closer please Before I rub your feet Before you sit Before we rush Before you blush Even before you close the door Can we have our magical kiss It's what I look forward to when I come home to you And your eyes light up the room when you look at me So, Baby it's ok We can go all the way Just promise me you'll stay Stay with me and don't you go away Baby it's ok We can go all the way Just promise me you'll stay Stay with me and don't you go away But before Before you talk Before you walk Before you blink Before you think Even before you take off your coat Allow me to come closer please Before I rub your feet Before you sit Before we rush Before you blush Even before you close the door Can we have our magical kiss Remember those days when you used to say You love me so much and you would stay I believed you in my heart Coz' you my baby You one of a kind I can say When I think about you everyday I feel like I'm in heaven yet again You bring out all the love I ever had You the one I've been waiting for Before you talk Before you walk Before you blink Before you think Even before you take off your coat Allow me to come closer please Before I rub your feet Before you sit Before we rush Before you blush Even before you close the door Can we have our magical kiss Kiss, kiss Magical kiss, kiss, kiss

I hear your voice Way down inside A whispering sea Of towering trees But no reply A silence so rare And more than I can stand Sweeps like a flood Through life's flesh and blood And steals away with it's heart If I'm losing you Then there's nothing more that I can say The fighting is on And battles are won Or thrown away But if I could live Safe and sound In God given fields Or mountains of steel Then here I'd stay Till you'd gone Guilty of stealing Every thought I own I will take my turn To fight the bullfight Every word's sunk in deep Like the blades of a knife through my heart But my strength will return To fight the bullfight As time's come to show I'm told nothing more than I should know A ship on the sea that threatens to leave But never goes This island of blue Where life clings to your hands Like water and sand Will loose it's way When you're gone When all's forgiven Still every fault's my own I will take my turn To fight the bullfight Say a prayer for my release When every hope in the world is asleep And my strength will return To fight the bullfight

I lost it all somehow Well, what are you gonna do now? Keep dreaming that you can Go back where you began Believin' love in every kiss that held you up against the wall Your shadow tall in summer sun before the fall You had it all Baby, you had it all (Hey) I dreamed that love was good Ah, baby, come back to bed Don't sweat what you can't change Close eyes and rearrange All the messes that you made Into a paper doll parade And all that you would trade to have it all Baby, you had it all Well, maybe it's okay If you wanna stay In love with yesterday When we had it all Baby, we had it all I lost it all somehow Well, what are you gonna do now? I lost it all somehow Well, what are you gonna do now? I lost it all somehow Well, what are you gonna do now? I lost it all somehow Well, what are you gonna do now?
