In The Rain*

Standing out in the cold
Raindrops falling down my face
I can see you in the distance
And now my tears fall along with the rain
My heart beating so fast I lose my breath
The thoughts race through my mind
I blink away the pouring water from my eyes
Every time I close them a different memory I see
To stand before you is all I could think of
But keeping my distance all you were
Was the boy across the street.
In my heart you were the man for me
Wanting to drop to my knees and
Drown in the lakes beneath my feet
Yet the wind had me so numb
I couldnâ??t move a single bone in my body
I wish you would look back at me
At the girl you once loved
Whom still loves you with
Every broken piece of her heart
Standing there Iâ??m trying to remember
What it was like looking into your eyes
And falling in love over and over again
To feel you lips upon mine just once
Would simply rush heat on my cheeks
And a warm feeling inside me
A feeling I havenâ??t felt since
The moment we parted
Not being able to turn away from you
I got this feeling in my throat
As if Iâ??m not supposed to leave
Like thereâ??s a reason you still
Linger In my mind and still have my heart
I regret every fighting word I spoke
I regret the actions I made
To make you slip away from me
I guess fighting back was the only way
I could prove how much I cared
Knowing if I just stood there
I wouldnâ??t be proving how much
I wished for you to be living good
Feeling this pain, it seems to be over
The rain falling harder on my face
My tears blending in so well
You walk back inside and I finally fall
And on my knees under the thundering sky
Is where Iâ??ll stay until you come back and
Finally see your reflection in my eyes
And the love for you in my soul
Holding out your hand to me for a
New beginning with the sun shining so bright
