Kathy's Song

1. I hear the drizzle on the way

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.

2. My mind's distracted and confused

my thoughts are many miles away

they lie with you in your sleep

kiss you when you start the day.

And this 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.

3. 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.
