Lyrics
it’s raining baby
I don’t want to go outside
take me to a quiet place
where we can run and hide
find me baby
between past and present tense
in a gallery of chairs
where I can sit and make some sense
take me to the drawing room
where I’ll withdraw from everything but you
come on darling
don’t you like to see the trees?
I know they’re out of season
but they make me feel something
like lightness baby
or a warmth that can’t compare
to the chill that I’ve been feeling
during this part of the year
and I know
I can’t escape
indecision
but I could sit
for a while
and admire the precision
of a Dutch landscape painter
painting pictures of the hillside
in the eighteenth century
where I was wishing I was living
so I wouldn’t have to face
all of the things I’m trying to ruin
I would float there so freely
in a room that’s built strictly for entertaining
and retreating
take me to the drawing room
where I’ll withdraw from everything but you
