Meanwhile the Rain

Mike Heron


Meanwhile the rain keeps on 
Splashing down my window 
I could cry for a soft warm sunset 
And a clear night 
Oh my, my, just we two with nothing to do 
The next morning 

Wish I could throw my books away 
Go and lie on a beach somewhere 
Let the sun and the warm, warm air 
Drive the rain from my thoughts 
Wish I could find a friend who would 
Stay by me 
And she'd look so beautiful 
Let her eyes and her warm, warm love 
Drive the rain from my thoughts 

Meanwhile the rain keeps on 
Splashing down my window 
I could cry for a soft warm sunset 
And a clear night 
But the rain keeps on 
The rain keeps on
