Rain Was Comin’

 

That rain was comin’

I could almost hear it

The rain was comin’

And I needed it

The rain was comin’

To wash away regret

Rain was comin’

 

Let’s tie off across the river

In those great grey cottonwoods

That have been standing

Standing with their toes up in high water

 

That rain was comin’

The swallows took flight

Rain was comin’

Weightless clouds could no longer hold what dropped all night

Rain was comin’

I could feel it

Wash away regret

Rain was comin’
