Rain On Monday

Zach Winters


Trickle down the outside of the pane
Tickle's the sound inside my brain

Are your eyes still as green as the rain makes the grass?
'Cause I’m counting them drops as a million go past
And I’m always watching just one
I’m always watching just one

As you go cold down the streams that you run past
We both know nothing will last
No time to dream in the night
Your last breath will come at first light

Drumming wet on the windowsill
Watching them tracing with water-made quills

You’re halfway down and you’re not slowing up
That green pleads for me to extend my cup, yeah
You were born with only a surface to slide
That gives a fast girl nowhere to hide
But I’m always watching you
I’ll try, but I’m always watching you

As you go cold down the streams that she runs past
We both know nothing will last
No time to dream in the night
Your last breath will come at first light

Quick draw you made down the side of my pane
I’d miss you if the others weren’t tapping my brain

Cold as the streams that you run past
We both know that nothing will last
No time to dream in the night
Your last breath will come at first light
Will come at first light
Will come at first light

We can’t because you will and I won’t
We can’t because you will and I won’t
