Joe Benjamin - Doorstep Friend

She's my doorstep friend
And when it rains we spend
Time together in bad weather seeking sadness
In a drenched sundress she welcomes darkness
What a beautiful tragedy
We dance around our pains
Outside on my doorstep

I just know her face from the time when I come home
everything beyond - remains unknown
When she steps inside I don't know where she's going
she keeps her life far from outside

And off she goes - fly far away

She's my doorstep friend
And when it rains we spend
Time together in bad weather seeking sadness
In a drenched sundress she welcomes darkness
What a beautiful tragedy
We dance around our pains
Outside on my doorstep

Rainy April Sunday i waited to see her
but the wind had cleared - she disappeared
all left to be found were memories of momentsn (<= counterline!)
when she relived me from my identity (don't hold identity too long)

And off she goes - fly far away

She was my doorstep friend
And when it rained we spent
Time together in bad weather seeking sadness
In a drenched sundress she welcomed darkness
What a beautiful tragedy
We danced around our pains
Outside on my doorstep

I drift alone
I pray dark clouds will carry her back home
the reveries I have spun
have come true as she glistens in the sun
