I hear the drizzle
of the rain
Like a memory
it falls
Soft and warm
continuing
Tapping on my roof
and walls
And from the shelter
of my mind
Through the window
of my eyes
I gaze beyond the
rain-drenched streets
To England where
my heart lies
My mind's distracted
and diffused
My thoughts are many
miles away
They lie with you
when you're asleep
And kiss you
when you
start your day
And a song
I was writing
is left undone
I don't know why
I spend my time
Writing songs
I can't believe
With words that tear
and strain to rhyme
And so you see
I have come to doubt
All that I once
held as true
I stand alone
without beliefs
The only truth
I know is you
And as I watch
the drops of rain
Weave their weary
paths and die
I know that I am
like the rain
There but for
the grace of you
go I...
