Nobody, Not Even the Rain

• La Dispute
• Somewhere at the Bottom of the River Between Vega and Altair

I know that someday you’ll be sleeping, darling

Likely dreaming off the pain

I hope you’ll hear me in the streetlights humming

Softly breathing out your name

I know that even with the seams stitched tightly, darling

Scars will remain

I say we scrape them from each other, darling

And let them wash off in the rain

And when they run into the river

Oh no, let the water not complain

I swear that even with the distance slowly

Wearing at your name

Your hands still catch the light the right way

And our hearts still beat the same

And our hearts still beat the same
