Rain Song

My heart skipped a beat, was it really you standing there in the rain?

Happy tears stung my eyes, washing away the doubt & fear of never seeing you

again

There were stars in your eyes as you took me in your arms, they shone much

brighter than any I had ever found in the skies

We were soon oblivious to the fact that our clothes were soaking wet

My father made an excuse to leave us, knowing this was where I wanted to be

there were no doubts and no regrets

I still remember the scent of your cologne as our fingers enterlaced, holding

me tightly as we took all the back roads home

I would have gladly spent forever there in your arms, dancing only to our heartbeats

as the angels witnessed from the clouds

I dreamed of being your wife, loving you forever, those things would have made

me so very proud

I could not see the storm brewing or sense the clouds about to break, drowning

my innocent heart, how could I have known you would be my biggest mistake?

So young, starved for affection, silly and naive, they all said you were married but

love wouldn't let me listen, refused to believe

It could have rained forever and that wouldn't have been enough to erase your

memory from my heart

All the pieces scattered, suffocating, drowning in my own tears, mixed with the

warm summer rain

You had used it, lied to it, left it broken, bleeding, so many pieces,

so completely torn apart...
