It looks like rain

gosh I had big ideas I was hoping to be someone
something went wrong with my carefully plotted plan
I stopped to take a look when I clearly should have run
sweet distractions caused the crap to hit the fan

I convinced myself that I could surely make this work
I mean after all it was just a harmless little trek
but this light blinded me and made my blood perk
then I felt the teeth of love bite me on the neck

the sun shined brightly as I walked in a zombie trance
fields of flowers stretched as far as the eye could see
birds singing melodies so sweet as I saw her face advance
she became more beautiful her glow enveloped me

I knew this must surely be someones elses dream
this did not fit at all into my simple minds design
then the clouds began to gather no more gentle stream
the wind began to howl and storms in a distant line

the sun slowly disappeared from the sky turning grey
the thunder clapping and winds sounding like a train
I awakened from my deep sleep and I heard someone say
yes my friend it most certainly looks like rain
