Through the slats of the blinds you were blinding
Calm the cool of my flesh unwinding
And the clothes that unwove were our binding
So we sleep, so we sleep
Your skin is a canvas I'm staring
And your love is a foal's first standing
And your dreams are a drink worth sharing
So we keep, so we keep
The flicker came to call on our landing
And the flush of your face was enchanting
Come the rain, why would I go?
Come again, buried in snow
Deep in the snow
Deep in the snow
Through the steam of the bath you were tracing
The lines of your face in the glass
We return to our bodies unflinching
This will pass
This will pass
And the rain that fell in Georgia fell like cinnamon
And the rain that fell in Maine flowed like water running down your skin
And the rain in California fell like wine
And your lips in California fell into mine
