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 minds 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
