Dry Glass Sky

Текст песни

[Verse 1] My window keeps its own story Dust on the ledge, pale and thin The laundromat hums on the corner And the sky just won’t let it in I keep my shoes by the doorway No puddles, no storms, no sound Just taxis sliding through headlines And heat on the frozen ground [Pre-Chorus] Everybody says, “wait” Everybody says, “soon” But the clouds pass over us Like they forgot this room I look up, I look up Nothing coming down [Chorus] This city never gets rain Never gets rain Still I dance in the same old lane Same old lane This city never gets rain Never gets rain But I shine right through the pain Through the pain (never gets rain) [Verse 2] The market glows in the morning Lemons stacked like small suns A woman folds her blue apron Says, “baby, this is what runs” The buses hiss at the crossing Kids kick cans down the block We learned to live on a promise That never learned how to stop [Pre-Chorus] Everybody says, “wait” Everybody says, “soon” But the clouds pass over us Like they forgot this room I look up, I look up Nothing coming down [Chorus] This city never gets rain Never gets rain Still I dance in the same old lane Same old lane This city never gets rain Never gets rain But I shine right through the pain Through the pain (never gets rain) [Bridge] Maybe I don’t need thunder Maybe I don’t need gray I found a way to be water In a place that won’t change So I keep my heart in motion I keep my name in flame If the sky won’t open for us I’ll still sing your name [Final Chorus] This city never gets rain Never gets rain Still I dance in the same old lane Same old lane This city never gets rain Never gets rain But I shine right through the pain Through the pain This city never gets rain Never gets rain And I bloom in the dry glass sky Dry glass sky (never gets rain)
