(for Tomokawa and Mikami Kan)nnWhiskey pours like teardrops fallnThe gods receive them both the samenMy temple ground lies under the town nThe streets above are paved with shamenAm I the same who came by local trainnVeins of whiskey bloodnThe only shadow of home is rainnnA northern man might understandnThe darkness I keep nearnMy only light the Seven StarsnAnd the glow of faces I fearnAm I the same who came by local trainnVeins of whiskey bloodnThe only shadow of home is rainnThe rain, the rain casting its shadow againnnBut I'm not damning the sunnA whiteness in the sky nA line drawn in the mistnA windowpanenReflections I won't ever find againnDoes the rain cast a shadow under the ground?
