Lyrics
Kicking The Old Rain
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Before you walk too far
Watching the sunlight leave
Kicking the old rain
Down the road
Teasing the rooftop birds
Laying some love by mine
Tired from laughing
Trade-in tears
Know that our world is always on fire
Always a quiet pile of stones
We all float away with birthday balloons
Sing with your teeth cross your heart
If you've been emptied out
Blowing the flowers round
Here comes another thunder hit
This wind is a welcome breeze
Ask if it brought a song
You've got a good one
From the Moon
