Wishing I Had an Umbrella |
| It’s rained for forty days and forty windy nights |
| In artificial light the storm has paled my skin |
| And flooded out my eyes |
| There needs to be a pair of every animal |
| When will a miracle deliver you to me |
| And set this ship to sail? |
| I’m tired of waiting |
| But I’m still here avoiding the puddles |
| Wishing I had an umbrella |
| To shelter myself from this loneliness |
| My socks are soaked |
| My fingers are frozen |
| This is the life that I’ve chosen |
| And when you’ll come back I can only guess |
| I’ll be here when you do |
| The crashing water drops disguise a timid knock |
| I fumble with the lock and check the door again |
| But no one’s ever there |
| The ground has turned to mud |
| The sky has turned to gray |
| The night turns into day without a change in hue |
| I stop and think this through |
| What if I should leave tomorrow? |
| What if I should harden up my heart? |
| What if I should give up hoping? |
| I’m hardly coping |
| At last I realize a new day has begun |
| When like the summer sun you blaze into the room |
| And melt the clouds away |
| I wonder if the light is really here to stay |
| Or will you run away and never come again? |
| Only time will tell |
| But I promise that |
| I’m all done avoiding the puddles |
| With wishing I had an umbrella |
| How can one separate false from true? |
| The warmest sun |
| The bitterest rainfall |
| I want to experience it all |
| There’s no need to shelter myself from you |
