She smiled even in the rain
a clever ruse to disguise her pain
stopping to say, "Hello"
before turning to go...
Yeah, she smiled even when it rained
so it was quite a surprise
in everyone's eyes..
when they covered her face
in her imported lace
neighbors all gawked...
as they stood n' they talked...
saying...
"I saw her smiling in the rain the other day...
she held up her hand n' said, "Hey!"
--and as she walked by
there were tears in her eyes
as she quietly whispered...
Goodbye".
