She walked out of her house   And looked around   At all the gardens that looked   Back at her house   (Like all the faces   That quiz when you smile...)      And he was standing   At the corner   Where the road turned dark   A part of shiny wet   Like blood the rain fell   Black down on the street      And kissed his feet she fell   Her head an inch away from heaven   And her face pressed tight   And all around the night sang out   Like cockatoos      "There are a thousand things" he said   "I'll never say those things to you again"   And turning on his heel   He left a trace of bubbles   Bleeding in his stead      And in her head   A picture of a boy who left her   Lonely in the rain   (And all around the night sang out   Like cockatoos)
