Kathy's song

I hear the drizzle of the rain

Like a memory it falls

Soft and warm continuing

Tapping on my roof and walls.


And from the shelter of my mind

Through the window of my eyes

I gaze beyond the rain-drenched streets

To England where my heart lies.


My mind s distracted and diffused

My thoughts are many miles away

They lie with you when you re asleep

And kiss you when you start your day.


And a song I was writing is left undone

I don t know why I spend my time

Writing songs I can t believe

With words that tear and strain to rhyme.


And so you see I have come to doubt

All that I once held as true

I stand alone without beliefs

The only truth I know is you.


And as I watch the drops of rain

Weave their weary paths and die

I know that I am like the rain

There but for the grace of you go I.
