I had been longing for rain For the whole summer Summer is gone now And it had never rained
Leaves yellowed, drifting down Onto the paper ready to carry to you My dreams that are still green After years of waiting
The long dried pen wetted By the tip of my tongue, little By little; but, darling, I still don't know where to begin
The letter; yesterday When you told me of the first rain Of the season there My heart ached, chilled From the bottom I held myself tight As if to keep you warm
We have become part of years of dreaming & loving ups and downs like the rain Come and go
