Between Us - Edith Frost

He’s a gentle killer 
Who dreams of fame 
Sings like sorrow 
And guides me away 
He tempts me with whiskey 
And draws himself near 
And late in the night 
It’s the one thing i hear 

At sunset we swallow 
Another one down 
Watching the little dogs 
Chasing around 
Catching the droplets 
Of rain in their mouths 
That fall from the leaves 
Between us and the clouds 

We know we were born 
For this darkening night 
And something we used to know 
Says it’s alright 
Catching the droplets 
Of rain in our mouths 
That fall from the leaves 
Between us and the clouds
