The Rain Road

Lyrics by Taylor Moore and Brennan Lee Mulligan

Where the wave has grazed the reach of green

And the wood by gentle sea
We count the coming of the tide
By a love as old as time

[chorus]
Lay down your blanket on the forest floor
In the peace of waves that crash no more
then embrace me love, soon to be
On the road the rain rides to the sea

[bridge]
Will the salt wind sew the cold earth?
Will the summers pass us by?
Will the storms break and divide us,
Set apart by shore and sky?

[chorus]
I am the blanket on the forest floor
I am the peace of waves that crash no more
Then embrace me love, tho love it leaves
By the road the rain rides to the sea

By the road the rain rides to the sea.

[AND BEHOLD THE SECRET UNRECORDED, UNRELEASED VERSE THAT WE DIDN’T USE
BECAUSE IT WAS ALREADY PRETTY LONG FOR A MUSICAL BREAK]
Where the leaves are softly falling
And the salmon seek the stream
There the spirits’ song is calling
To awaken in a dream
