Rain In Soho Lyrics - Mountain Goats

No one knows where the lone wolf sleeps 

No one sees the hidden treasure in the castle keep 

No one learns the secret name 

No one burns in the absent flame 

No one broke D.B. Cooper's fall 

No one hopes to hear the bagman call 

Children piping in the main square 

But no one's dancing 

No one's dancing down there 

The river goes where the water flows 

But no one knows when the Batcave closed 

The river goes where the water flows 

But no one knows when the Batcave closed 

No promise sweeter than a blood pact 

Nothing harder to go through with than a vanishing act 

No morning colder than the first frost 

No friends closer than the ones we've lost 

Nothing sharper than a serpent's tooth 

Nothing harder than the gospel truth 

Though you repent and don sackcloth and try to make nice 

You can't cross the same river twice 

The river goes where the water flows 

But no one knows when the Batcave closed 

The river goes where the water flows 

But no one knows when the Batcave closed 

There's a club where you'd like to go 

You could meet someone who's lost like you 

Revel in the darkness like a pair of open graves 

Fumble through the fog for a season or two 

No town more barren than our town 

No haven safer than the one they tore down 

No greater love than to lay my life down for a friend 

No sweeter pleasure than to see the credits clear through to the end 

No one knows where the lone wolf's gone 

No one sees it camped out right there in the front lawn 

We played for you but you would not sing 

No one was going to get away with anything 

The river goes where the water flows 

But no one knows when the Batcave closed 

The river goes where the water flows 

But no one knows when the Batcave closed
