Letter in the Rain

The morning bright and still has laid a frost across the hill And the glory of it takes my breath away The birdsong in the trees floating on the ghost of a breeze Says, "You're lucky to be a creature alive today" The rosy-fingered dawn is changing color in the east Like in ancient days, we'll never see again Once we were together, that I do remember All the rest is like a letter in the rain So I go to check my snares, see what night caught unawares I take the path along the creek again In the garden of delight, a snake slithered into sight So we left Eden and headed for the plain Day by day and night by night, she didn't leave my side Now she never wants to see my face again Once we spoke in love's low tongue, all the bells at midnight rung All the rest is like a letter in the rain There's a river somewhere up around the bend When it hurts, that river's always been my friend The frost has gone now from the hill, like a vision in a dream You never know when glory will come again I remember her dark stare and a braid of nut-brown hair All the rest is just a letter in the rain
