Maryland Electric Rainstorm Lyrics - Divine Comedy

Amery was bored, as he 

Was usually in the countryside: 

He'd walk alone, reciting Poe, 

Returning home through the failing light. 

One day, he'd gone some miles along 

A new road, when on an old man's bad advice 

He left to cross the woods, but just 

Got totally lost, and then 

The Maryland electric rainstorm broke 

Over his head, making him wet, upset, then 

The Maryland electric rainstorm broke everything 

Soaked through his skin, into his heart and soul 

Suddenly, no more trees 

Amery, to his great relief, 

Could see his way through stacks of hay, 

Through wind and rain... then surprisingly 

He heard the song "Les Sanglots Longs 

Des Violons" coming from nearby 

A female tone he did not know, 

All husky and low... 

While the lightning split the sky

"Who's there?", she cried"Don Juan", he lied. 

A shriek of delight came back through the rain, 

A small white hand took his one and 

Their friendship began 

With the Maryland electric rainstorm high 

Over their heads making them wet 

Forget about the Maryland electric rainstorm 

Breaking everything, making them clean 

Freedom is the Maryland electric rainstorm 

High over your heads making you wet 

Forget about the Maryland electric rainstorm 

Breaking everything making you clean 

Freeing your heart and soul
