Kathy's Song
I hear the drizzle of the rainLike a memory it fallsSoft and warm continuingTapping on my roof and walls.
And from the shelter of my mindThrough the window of my eyesI gaze beyond the rain-drenched streetsTo England where my heart lies.
My mind's distracted and diffusedMy thoughts are many miles awayThey lie with you when you're asleepAnd kiss you when you start your day.
And the song I was writing was left undoneI don't know why I spend my timeWriting songs I can't believeWith words that tear and strain to rhyme.
And so you see I have come to doubtAll that I once held as trueI stand alone without beliefsThe only truth I know is you.
And as I watch the drops of rainWeave their weary paths and dieI know that I am like the rainThere but for the grace of you go I.
