I sit by the window and listen to the sound of the rain The soft pitter patter is almost calming The sky is now tar-black, a big difference to the cocktail blue it was Raindrops falling, their drumming a melody, music to my ears That sense of tranquility The coolness of the water on your skin Crystal clear drops Falling from a sheet of grey sky It's like I hear each individual drop of rain hit the ground; One by one.
