There was a wailing rain at sleepless night, The dirty sky lit up with evil light. I couldn't tame my pain, as it was with you. Nobody can create the world anew.
The nightmares come to find us sleeping, The future comes to find us dead. The raindrops said I'd fail in keeping All of those things I've ever had.
The distant thunder peals kept me awake And scenes of you occurred before my eyes Your tender look, your laughter, your headshake, Each slowly movement of your thighs.
If God exists – where is he living? Not in this chamber anyway. From all regrets, from pain and grieving The glass of wine's is me to pray.
When never-ceasing rain turned into sleet My feet were bare I went along the street, I pushed aside the comers, charged 'em through My sightless eyes searched for the road to you.
