I wish It would Rain
It reminds me of rain
Sometimes it just drifts down softly
Like it's never gonna stop
Sometimes it is hot and misty
But then it is gone
Torn away by a gentle wind
Sometimes you sit still and suddenly
Without warning it come crashing
It hails until you run for cover
With us I saw it coming
I watched it creep in slowly
Like a fog surrounding me
The wind picked up
And the thunder struck
The sky lit with lightning
There was an eerie calm
A great period of uncertainty
And a longing for something permanent
Then once more the storm erupted
Only for a moment or two
Then the rain stooped as suddenly as it began
It began so suddenly
And I was afraid of the storm
But now I miss our rain
