Another year bygone,
faiths tested, minutes wasted,
hours lost yet the seconds survived.
unfulfilled wishes, the abandoned hope,
the souring dreams, the expectations that rose.
a broken heart, the shed tears
the lost smile, the happiness i fear.
a series of triumphs, hosts of despair
longing for laughter, an escaped prayer
not everything ends up being fair
the losses mourned, and the treasured gains,
oh those lovely walks in the rain,
the wind on my face,
the life we live as a race

oh those lovely walks in the rain,
