Rain (Setting Out in the Leaf Boat) - The Innocence Mission

This dress that I made out of the curtains

Was on the line, dancing around

Better than I can

Now we walk up to the top of the street

Once letting go, rain sails us in a leafy boat

Down the street

And we’ll be there before we know

There go the lawn chairs

Some frogs are racing them

To catch up with me

Gray buildings go by

Violety sky lit up with trees in yellow

Once letting go, rain sails us in a leafy boat

Down the street

And we’ll be there before we know

Hey, is that you, going by, swimming by?

Hey, is that you, zig-zagging, whizzing by?

Sailing up, sailing by?

Once letting go, rain sails us in a leafy boat

Down the street

And we’ll be there before we know
