Staring out through the window of my despair
And out into the melancholy rain
Even though the sun is still shining
My heart is still searching...
The bright sky mocks my pain
The neon colored rainbow
Taunts me in its haunting tune
Because it is lonely in the clouds.
The dreary morning matches my equally dreary eyes
Though it has the envious sun
Held in high spirits
While mine is held in a low and trembling note.
The gentle raindrops laugh at me
The heavy clouds tormenting me
Creating a jealousy for their
Ability to cry so freely.
If only I could tell my story
Sing a song about my heart
And the heavy the doors with a lock and bolt
That hold it shut.
The burning sun rips at my eyes
Drying up all my fears
While the taunting rainbow
Paints a new song in my heart.
I have no freedom like the clouds
No color like the rainbow
No laughter like the rain
And no emotions like the sky.
If only the sun wasn't so high
Then maybe I could steal some of its radiance
And unstitch my lips to sing
The song in my heart.
The bright sun dries away the rain
In a manor much like my love runs dry
Only the sun is much more beautiful
In it's glorious high noon than me.
If only the rainbow lasted longer
And the rain didn't dry so fast
Maybe the clouds wouldn't be so heavy
And the rainbow so lonely.
If only love didn't die
And the sky didn't darken
Than maybe I could go on singing
Aaah... Aah... I could go on singing.
