Lyrics
The Rains of May
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.
I miss the smell if spring
Soft whispers in my ear
I'm waiting for you here
You never come
This? As I see
Young lives?
They're holding up the other side
For you
The fire roams across the sky
Tender night for you and I
The fire roams across the sky
Gentle night for you and I
Some days of sleep
The thrill is gone
Those fighting eyes
Once sought cruel love
