lyrics

There's a raindrop on your forehead
And it wakes you from your dream
The place you go
When life
Is harder than it seems

The rain has come
And broke the dawn
You thought that you were not alone

When the nighttime left you weary
And you felt your will grow frail
You stole away
You stole away
As daylight failed

Through the woods down to the river
To the point above the shoals
You looked around
To find the place
You used to go

The rain has come
And broke the dawn
You thought that you were not alone

You pulled whiskey from your pocket
And you drank it deeply down
It cooled your hand
And dulled the pain
You've brought from town

So you took a rusty locket
From a hole beside the tree
And it trembled in your hand
As you thought of what
Could never be

INSTRUMENTAL CHORUS

There's a raindrop on your forehead
And your whiskey has grown warm
You leave her there
And return to home
Before the storm

The rain has come
And broke the dawn
You thought that you were not alone

The rain has come
And broke the dawn
You dreamed that you were not alone
