Sweeter Than The Rain lyrics

by

Mark Knopfler


[Intro]‎
My hunter’s heart may not be merciless
But on this day of freezing snow
It’s as cold as the heart of the ice princess
Who didn’t want to know

[Verse 1]
I take my orders, ask few questions
It’s no real life for a decent man
Few clear cut lines or regulations
Low on prospects and future plans

[Verse 2]
If you should hearken to the devil’s bidding
Perchance you’ll bring me work to do
It may not be my heart’s true calling
But I will surely come for you

[Chorus 1]
To you who live by rape and plunder
I’ll shoot or hang with scant remorse
My Old Reliablе the avenging thunder
Elsе my rope and faithful horse

[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Your late companion in haste repented
I had him take a ride with me
Through this poor country he had so tormented
Until we came to the highest tree

[Chorus 2]
He did reveal in his confession
That you were making for the train
This bitter snow will soon be melting
And nothing sweeter than the rain
