Rain

Softly humming that sweet seventy's song,
The doe-eyed girl walks alone all along,
Looking for company, on the narrow lane
She finds solace, she finds happiness in the pouring rain.

Her hair is dark, and thick and long,
She smiles all the time, as if nothing's wrong,
She finds new friends to keep herself sane,
But today she feels different, maybe there's some vodka and tonic in the rain.

She dreams of happiness, she wishes someone will come along
And sweep her off her feet, she wants to fall headlong
Into his arms, he'll give her strength, he will take away her pain,
She would no longer have to let out her tears in the rain.

But she is scared, what if, yet again, things go wrong?
He breaks her heart and hurts her when she's not strong?
She would have to pick up the pieces, flush them down the drain,
Curse him and miss him at the same time, and wish that it would rain.

She is Wet and cold, but her heart is still strong
And good and sweet and in due time someone will come along,
Until then, she'll make jokes, laugh aloud, play the game,
Find warmth in little drops from heaven, the girl whose name is Rain.
