Summer Rain

people running round, people running out of time

feels such a struggle, struggle just to rhyme

but its easy to be happy, when the rain’s on your back

the winds prepare to pound, just before the clouds attack

you don’t mind the water when you’re drenched to the skin

its too late to worry once the thunder begins

but I see these intimations

do not move you like me

on thoughts of summer raindrops

our minds will not agree

your icy skin will never burn

your feet will never know

the touch of paths untrodden

the feel the naked snow.

this is also a song about raindrops falling on the shore

a dry land called America that called out for more

we are boats against the current, struggling always to return

beating ceaseless for past loves for which we yearn

I don’t blame you that your faith was so small

‘s easy to survive, just a little lonely, that’s all

the rain abandons us when the wind will blow

the storm has passed over, and I must go.
