The birds aren't singing today It's raining so kids stay in instead of going out to play I walk up town and see there's nothing to see but alley ways I sit on a bench in the gardens so pretty in all colours but they are crying for sunshine I would say I walk over a bridge far from home and stop to watch as the water runs never stays Something amongst the trees watches me and I start to pray Alone in a forest I shouted hey He ran like the water from the brook gone astray on this rainy day Water trickles down my back and I shiver and think of home but it sounds very grey I always walk by the nurses quarters to see if I can glimpse the nurse with the long red hair and then I walk away always dismay
