Joshua Lee Turner - DeKalb, Illinois şarkı sözleri

Sanatçı: Joshua Lee Turner

albüm: As Good a Place as Any


The rain so persistent
In DeKalb, Illinois
Can barely find a coffee here
Much less a cause for joy
Of beauty and sorrow
The water bleeds the seam
As for the first time in twenty days
To kiss, a lucid dream
The rain-darkened trunks
Make the red leaves glow brighter
A ponderous load
Makes the body seem lighter
And here you are
On a dark and heavy day
Both of us wishing you could stay
A gift of twelve hours
A spiritual souvenir
It's harder, though to receive a gift
We know will disappear
Encroachment of nausea
As farewells impend
Till fatefully we fret to sleep
Perchance to dream again
The rain-darkened trunks
Make the red leaves glow brighter
A ponderous load
Makes the body seem lighter
And there you were
On a dark and heavy day
Both of us wishing you could stay
