The Innocence Mission
Rain (Setting Out in the Leaf Boat)
This dress that I made out of the curtains
Was on the line, dancing around
Better than I can
Now we walk up to the top of the street
Once letting go, rain sails us in a leafy boat
Down the street
And we'll be there before we know
There go the lawn chairs
Some frogs are racing them
To catch up with me
Gray buildings go by
Violety sky lit up with trees in yellow
Once letting go, rain sails us in a leafy boat
Down the street
And we'll be there before we know
Hey, is that you, going by, swimming by?
Hey, is that you, zig-zagging, whizzing by?
Sailing up, sailing by?
Once letting go, rain sails us in a leafy boat
Down the street
And we'll be there before we know
