The words came like a hard rain And your smile changed like a hurricane Your breath smells like cardamom And the words came just like a hard rain I recall you said you missed me I was afraid I acted desperately I recall you said it for hours Then again it doesn't matter I never tried, I never dared, I wish I'd said something But I've been standing outside your door At least that's something Your breath smells like cardamom And the words came just like a hard rain I try to tell myself at night When the dusty old pictures are all out of sight That I think I will be alright Just don't come closer morning light
