Sao Paulo Rain - Tom McRae

there’s always a party on funeral row, where the cross flashes red to the

street.

and gasoline dreams of girls in blue jeans, he’s grazing the surface od sleep.

the vultures on main street are eyeing you up, calculating the wait of your

bones.

and midnight graffiti appears on your door, so we all can sleep safe in our

homes.

and the storms in the distance hold no rain, and i feel my resistance giving

way.

shelter me from this sky, dance with me one last time… sau paulo rain… sau

paulo rain

do not disturb this blood red earth, there’s giants sleeping beneath,

and carnival queens on their deathbed scenes all go through the motions of grief.

take another hit, let the bottle slip through your fingers and break like a promise made…

the day i remember, my heart i will keep, my voice i surrender and i will not

speak to lie.

we were so alive, we were so alive.

shelter me from this sky, dance with me one last time… sau paulo rain… sau

paulo rain
