Rain - Dando Shaft

As my footsteps join your rhythm

We will dance away the miles

And whichever road you walk I’ll be there

Though the night may have its secrets

You have lent your company

We’ll travel down the road without a care

Though you sting the very mouth That sings your praise

No there’s no malice in the pain

Just your way of saying who you are

You’re the bringer of my comfort

You’re the rain

I have known the time for cursing

As your spoiling fingers dance

On some sun-drenched dream of soft grass, silk and love

But tonight I know your purpose

I’m content to share your ways

As you whisper down your friendship from above

Though you sting the very mouth That sings your praise

No there’s no malice in the pain

Just your way of saying who you are

You’re the bringer of my comfort

You’re the rain

My journey’s all but over

Just the last few steps to take

Before I lay me down to join my dreams

For your company my thanks

And I hope when next we meet

I’ll recall tonight remembering your schemes

Though you sting the very mouth That sings your praise

No there’s no malice in the pain

Just your way of saying who you are

You’re the bringer of my comfort

You’re the rain
