Dull rain in late July 
We tried our best to stay inside 
But the cold wet fingers on your bones so dry 
Convinced you not to run or hide 

And the days got shorter and the seasons changed 
I’m in stranger places learning strangers’ names 
But the strangest feeling is the guilty pain 
When I’m afraid I’ve forgotten your face 

So we drive on the highways 
With both of our eyes closed 
And keep all the lights on 
While our lovers disrobe 
Because we love to be scared 
By the things that we don’t know 
And not the ones you love 

Darling why 
Did I ever have to 
Say goodbye 
To your voice your scent those 
Irish eyes 
But there was never enough time 

So we find ourselves as tall as clouds 
When rain itself is plagued with doubt 
To start or stop or end the drought 
And put the fire out 

Like that autumn afternoon in an empty house 
When you first kissed me on the mouth 
You said that we had figured out 
The secret of electric love 

Cause it flows from your fingers 
like songs from the radio 
In silent transmissions 
Delivered in stereo 
To a metal receiver 
That sleeps deep in my bones 
And screams for you today 

Darling why did I ever have to 
Say goodbye 
To your singing voice and those 
Irish eyes 
Now I’m not sure if I’m alive 

You say leave I say ok 

She’s three sheets to the wind 
And I think that she means it 
Her words might be slurred 
But her voice is so clean 
It’s like rain in your bones 
Like a home you could live in 
Says “honey I don’t wanna leave alone” 

Like a dream 
Now she’s calling me to bed again 
Sounds so sweet 
And I’m not sure how this is gonna end 
Sound a sleep 
But I’m quite content that it’s happening 
Next to me
