Josh Ritter - Rainslicker lyrics

You had your red rain slicker on
Your face was turned up into
Rain as you watched me
And I was crossing, I was crossing
The street like my own Rubicon
I'm coming back home to you, coming back Rome
And your eyes were so patient and calm
And green as the grass that might
Grow on the 23rd Psalm
The last 40 days have been rain
The sun is a prodigal one
That seems bent upon
Giving it'self a bad name
And leaving us deep in the lurch
As we walked down the lane
It’s a long time, oh, such a long time
And I hope for your sake, I’ve changed
And I hope for my sake
I managed to remain the same
Cause it's raining for you
Raining for you now
Is it raining for me, raining for me now?
Hey, hey hey hey hey, hey hey hey hey
You tied your old bike to a tree
Came in from the weather
Though not yet together
I felt your hand light on my sleeve
As light as a bird that
Might offer a sinner reprieve
We don’t know too much
I know we don’t know too much
But love rains mysteriously
Behind every cloud is a purpose
Only now we can see
It was raining for us, raining for us now
Raining for us, raining for us now
Raining for us, raining for us now
Raining for us, raining for us
