TONIGHT IT RAINS
Tonight It Rains
Tonight on the rainy street
I saw a man looking at me ,
Love strive nor weep is what
He said to me ,
Love only sleep when we dream
What is so wild as words can be ,
I and thou in debate,
As a bird with out a nest ,
See the creature stalking
While we speak!
That is me watching you in my head
Is what the man said ;
Hush and hide the talking of the night,
It's been too many nights of being with
out love in my life ,
Two years had been to long when you
Had told me to move on ,
I started to walk away as he told me to stay
And hear what he had to say ,
With a charm be a man of old the one to hold
The one who gives his soul to the love he craves
With his arms he takes hold and wont let me go ,
The rain is coming down why he is holding me
Down to the grown !
Teach me please what makes you run from me ,
I will speak thy speech of love,
Laying flesh sweet to my spirit in the hands.
Must a little weep, Love, (Foolish me!)
And so fall asleep, my Love with me ,
Lilly Emery (C)
