She came to me like a flower, dripping wet from the rain
Wanted to find shelter and some solace from the pain
Held her in the darkness, mouth to mouth and cheek to cheek
Came in from the desert, burned and smolderin’ from the heat
Stop the stumble on the path of what’s been set up to repeat
On the lam, the great escape, the re-aligning of her needs
Find a seed that needs some water, put it sweet between her teeth
Help to keep her seeking what she knows lies underneath
The rain splashed down from heaven to cleanse us of our sins
We were found and brought together to place oils on our skin
A little bruised, a little battered, a little scratched up in the brush
A kiss to calm our thoughts now, as the wind it whispers hush
Take up your brush and canvas, take on a brightly colored world
Turn the songs up long past midnight, dance a slow and liquid swirl
Take the dream that warms the bedsheets, sing the dream that floats in air
There is poetry in motion, there are words that hold us there
The rain splashed down from heaven to cleanse us of our sins
We were found and brought together to place oils on our skin
A little bruised, a little battered, a little scratched up in the brush
A kiss to calm our thoughts now, as the wind it whispers hush
