When The May Rain Comes Lyrics by Current 93
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
Green are the streets
The asphalt 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
Whilst the water trickles
Right over her face

When the May rain comes...

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
When the May rain comes...
Green are the streets   The asphalt 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   Whilst the water trickles   Right over her face      When the May rain comes...      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   When the May rain comes...
