[Verse 1]
I know your name
Through every drop of rain that falls
I've known them all
Through every stillborn hurricane
And the skies unchained
On the unwashed plain
And the driving rain
Time has a way of slipping past
Like reason through the hourglass
We hear too fast
The lines don't last
[Chorus]
Not like they used to do
When I had you
The lines I threw away
Down and away
[Verse 2]
I loved you young
When all impression gathered, spun
On foreign suns
We gathered crumbs
One or another drifting by
Past regiments of humble pie
And the soggy sky
And the unstitched eye
Writ across the glass
Of an unsung past
I know your name
Through every drop of rain that falls
I've known them all
Through every stillborn hurricane
And the skies unchained
On the unwashed plain
And the driving rain
Time has a way of slipping past
Like reason through the hourglass
We hear too fast
The lines don't last
[Chorus]
Not like they used to do
When I had you
The lines I threw away
Down and away
[Verse 2]
I loved you young
When all impression gathered, spun
On foreign suns
We gathered crumbs
One or another drifting by
Past regiments of humble pie
And the soggy sky
And the unstitched eye
Writ across the glass
Of an unsung past
