Rain Garden Lyrics by Protomartyr, from the album “Formal Growth In The Desert“.
Rain Garden Lyrics
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, 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
