The Elegant Companion - The Waterboys

That elegant companion of mine

That woman of the rain

Holding me as I sleep

On the Yokohama train

Tracing the straight road to my heart

In seven-eight time

That elegant companion of mine

She commands the weather

Invokes a storm in an old land

And smiles amid the wreckage

That smile could stop a war

Or start one

How she shines

That elegant companion of mine

In the no guitar hotel

In her dress with the bow

When I’m ready to explode

She puts her arms around me

Says Darling I’m so happy you found me

She soothes my rage with a voice so kind

That elegant companion of mine

That elegant companion of mine
