Raining

It's raining tonight Smearing the light down the window as though the paint hasn't dried on the night It's raining... Is it raining where you are? I can feel the rain wet upon my face... Many miles apart You are in your eyrie alone and asleep, I am imagining you there, me there, us together, tonight It's raining... Is it raining where you are? I am hearing the rain, in my heart The moon, the same moon Stares down at me, and watches over you I take comfort from the silver moonlight falling on us both It's raining... Is it raining where you are? I'm seeing the rain illuminated by the moon, sparkling underfoot Lonely, I'm lonely Sitting here, awake, alone... longing. I am imagining me there, you here, us together always It's raining... Is it raining where you are? I love the smell of rain in the grass at night Can I take the step toward you, Out into the night? Can I take the step to another life That may mend or break my heart? Can I take you from your life, make you step lightly into mine? Can I live without you still? It's raining... Is it raining where you are? I can taste the rain, salt upon my tongue....
