Crazy Fingers - Grateful Dead

Your rain falls like crazy fingers

Peals of fragile thunder keeping time

Recall the days that still are to come

Some sing blue

Hang your heart on laughing willow

Stray down to the water

Deep sea of love

Beneath the sweet calm face of the sea

Swift undertow

Life may be sweeter for this, I don’t know

See how it feels in the end

May Lady Lullaby sing plainly for you

Soft, strong, sweet and true

Cloud hands reaching from a rainbow

Tapping at the window touch your hair

So swift and bright

Strange fingers of light

Float in air

Who can stop what must arrive now?

Something new is waiting to be born

Dark as the night

You’re still by my side

Shining side

Gone are the days we stopped to decide

Where we should go

We just ride

Gone are the broken eyes we saw through in dreams

Gone — both dream and lie

Life may be sweeter for this I don’t know

Feels like it might be alright

While Lady Lullaby sings plainly for you

Love still rings true

Midnight on a carousel ride

Reaching for the gold ring down inside

Never could reach

It just slips away but I try
