The dark clouds outside my window And high above my dreary world Rain waters upon my windowsill. The droplets on the earths surface replace what won't fall from my eyes To express the quiet sorrows That I've hidden deep inside. I've run out of tears to cry For this particular subject. And though I wish I could cry To relieve my sighs I cannot myself express This deep sadness And so I let the clouds, In all their strong gray beauty, Cry for me.
