The Late September Dogs Lyrics by Melissa Etheridge

The Late September Dogs Lyrics

    Just outside my window I hear the late September dogs
    And I understand their warning I understand their song
    Since you left I feel the change in the air
    And night after night I'm searching for mercy everywhere
    So I wake in the street and I call out your name
    I shout to the sky please

    Come on let it rain
    Let it rain down on me
    Let the rain touch my hands
    Let the rain set me free
    Let it rain down on me

    Silence is the steel that pierces and cuts me to the bone
    In dreams the hand that touches you is mine and mine alone
    Cruel is the light is the morning shining down on me
    Hours with the Devil to understand just what you need
    So I wake in the street and I call out your name
    Shout to the sky come on

    Come on let it rain
    Let it rain down on me
    Let the rain fill my eyes
    Let the rain set me free
    Let it rain down on me

    Just inside the distance I hear the late September dogs
    And so I beg for sleep the child who walked before she crawled
    Damn my soul that remembers and clutches to this pain
    The spear in your side is me

    Come on let it rain
    Let it rain down on me
    Let the rain touch my hands
    Let the rain set me free
    Let it rain down on me
