Current 93 When the May Rain Comes Lyrics

Green are the streets
The asfalt is glistening
When the dust of the day
Will be washed away

The windows are closed
And the rain is dripping
From sill to sill
And down to the ground

When the may rain comes...

Very young are the leaves
of the trees and the shrubs
And tiny flowers grow
In the roadside ditch

The laughter of a child
Who's jumping into puddles
While the water shrinkels
Right over her face

When the may rain comes...
...all of this...

And this is the morning of the year
A rainy green smile
After a long gloomy
Pale winter night

The shouting of the child
Melts into rustling
When the heavy rain rushes
From on the high

When the may rain comes...
...all of this...
...shall be washed away...

(x2)

When the may rain comes...
