Dripping down the window pane
|
The sky has opened up again
|
Treating me to welcome rain
|
I'm glad it's here
|
|
|
Turns the trees to liquid green
|
Encourages a glossy sheen
|
Upon the bark and on the leaves
|
It's loud and clear
|
|
|
Taking coats from secret cupboards
|
Gloves and scarves and large umbrellas
|
|
|
So simple and peculiar to enjoy
|
The simple melody
|
That hopefully won't ever go away
|
|
|
Splashing footsteps down the lane
|
Puddles fill and then remain
|
Sparrows glad the bathtubs came
|
Fluffed and clean
|
|
|
Grey electric moody sky
|
Clouds so low but if I try
|
To touch them, I can't reach that high
|
Still it teems
|
|
|
So I run and spin and turn and turn
|
I dance, what have I done to earn this day
|
|
|
I rush on home to get me dry
|
To sit me down right by the fire
|
To read a book and be inspired
|
My favourite room
|
|
|
Mozart climbs into my head
|
I fell asleep, should go to bed
|
Music woke me from the dead
|
I hear you're home
|
|
|
Come on you and join my open heart
|
Cheat the night run out into the dark
|
|
|
Melody of the rain
