Two drops falling down
Right into the mix
The pastry takes on power
When tears are in the flour
It rattles in her hands
The fork against the plate
The napkin falls on tiles
The sugar falls in piles
The superstitious bride
Is laughing in the car
She lighting little fires
While he's outside fixing tires
But the smile fades from her face
Like her breath fades from the windshield
Of all the days to rain
Of all the days to rain
But she held his gaze for days
The children at his knees
Are outside getting wet
They've knocked down a bunch of trees
And they're not finished yet
'Cause they saw it in his face
And they heard it when he talked
Spread nails all over the place
And then they hid behind a rock
But she held his gaze for days
Is it time to tell them?
Should we make it public?
We have such a secret
Is it really worth keeping?
She's sleeping down the hall
And she held his gaze for days
