people from a planet without flowers

would think we must be mad with joy

the whole time

to have such things about us

~ iris murdoch

april is the cruelest month
breeding lilacs out of the dead land
mixing memory and desire
stirring dull roots with spring rain

only love
can make it rain
the way the beach is kissed by the sea
only love
can make it rain
like the sweat of lovers
laying in the fields

l o v e
reign o’er me
l o v e
reign o’er me

only love
can bring the rain
that makes you yearn to the sky
only love
can bring the rain
that falls like tears from on high

l o v e
reign o’er me

on the dry and dusty road
the nights we spend apart alone
i need to get back home to cool cool rain
i cant sleep and i lay and i think
the night is hot and black as ink
oh god i need a drink of cool cool rain . . .
