'I can hear the Rain'

I can hear the rain

Pounding at my door

Another gloomy day

I can't take anymore

There used to be a light

That light was you

I used to dream alone

And I'd end up with you

I can hear the rain

Slipping down my face

Meandering through the crevices

Leaving behind a trace

A trace of love that is just for you

My heart doesn't long for something new.

No, it still longs for you

Your beautiful hair

And your wonderful care

Free joy and happiness

That was there to stay

But I had to have tempted fate

I needed you more and more

As the world flew by

My world stood still

I hear the goodbyes

I'm not where I'm supposed to be

I deserve more

I deserve better

I'm sure I've found the cure

But to obtain it is much harder to do

For some it's in their blood

They open a door to find there

Gold and love and everything in between

They don't notice as it seems

Far to far for me to go

Door after door

Thousands of keys

Only to unlock

And set myself free

I lost a love so fond of me

She had my heart

She had my key

It fit so elegantly inside her chest

I knew at the start that we could stand the test

Of time

Of trouble

Of lovers joy

Her words of wisdom sang to my heart

But I ignored the sounds of harps

The sound of joy

The sound of love

I lost the only thing I've ever loved

More than my life

More than my dreams

I cry when awake

My mind makes me weep

I think of how things would be

Should be

If I could unlock more doors

And see

The next step in my life so fresh

And free

But now that locks shut

And I've lost the key

I can hear the rain

Inside my mind

The condensation

Turned me blind

but I can see

Through foggy haze

And I know just

One of these days

I'll find a way

And Escape the maze.
