Sunshower

When the summer lies like a lazy dog
And the dust is blowing like a fine feathered fog
And the hog is sleeping like a log
And the welcome wind like a long lost friend
Bring the clouds along
And the thunder sits in the rumble seat
And the mist comes drifting on your hard swollen feet
And the heat and haze and thunder meet
And the rain comes down in a silver gown
And simply stands around
When the light and the water share the same sky
In the same hour
Hallelujah
It’s a sunshower
Hallelujah
It’s a sunshower
Such is love my friend in the early days
When your hopes are rising through a hole in the haze
In a daze but there’s a second phase
And a second fall when you find you’re caught
In a moving maze
And the sadness comes without your consent
And you find yourself explaining all the things that you meant
You’ll repent and try to pay the rent
But the tears will fall, walking down the hall
On eviction day
When regret and relief share the same sign
In the same hour
Hallelujah
Love’s a sunshower
Hallelujah
Love’s a sunshower
