THE RAIN AGAIN

LOSS

1979

Its been raining for four days now
I can sense it
I can feel it all around
its wet on my pillow
the window’s open wide
I know the reason
You’re on my mind

Its been raining for four weeks now
I can sense it
I can feel it all around
its even wet on the ground
you’re on my thoughts
but I’m biding my time

Its been raining for four months now
I can sense it
I can feel it all around
I can hear a near silent sound
I sit up and listen
but I realise its nothing

Its been raining for four years now
I can sense it
I can feel it all around
I hear a familiar sound
you drift through the window
dressed in a silken gown

I realise I’ve been waiting
four years too long
left with bitter memories
and this lonely song
but I always had a reason
you were on my mind.
