After Rain

You call arrows to fall short Because the snow is at our feet And when embraces subside, and the lilies have died It comes down to her tears on a sheet But it's alright because You cause lanterns to light And force demons disperse And if Lucifer may fear the swift drying of tears Then, for evil, you could not be worse But I see you now, yeah, I see you And release me now, kinda like dreams do And I see you now, was hard to see you Just don't forget to sing Remember everything And you're the only little girl I know who'd bring a kite in the snow Said, "You just gonna hold it up?" Said, "Nah, I'm gonna let it go" And when your heart hurts, days like today are the antidote If you think just maybe it's her Then promise me, young man, you're gonna let her know You won't go lonely, yeah You won't go lonely, yeah You won't go lonely, yeah You won't go lonely, yeah It'll all be better in the morning 'Cause while you sleep, I'll build a wall Pick a weapon up or something We're 'bout to have ourselves a brawl In dead of night, one window open He heard her singing down the hall Singing 'bout him, least he was hoping She left her listener enthralled, woo, ooh --- After Rain - Dermot Kennedy
