And Then it Rains...

i've been here before,
will you be here again,
will we have times
like way back when?
Can you catch a dream
before it floats away?
Smoke rings in the sky
turn into clouds...
and then it rains

i've seen you before,
will you see me today
might you come down
and might we play?
Can you catch a note
before it floats away
upward through the sky
to pierce a cloud?...
and then it rains

Rain is sometimes happy,
other times it is not
Rain, it sometimes traps you
where it's hot, where it's hot

i've heard that before...
would you say it's so,
would you admit if you don't know?
Have you heard a cry
before it's died away?
Water from your eyes
travels the skies...
and then it rains
and then it rains
and   then it rains
and then it rains...
