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
