Waiting on that someone,
I have yet to see.
In times unexpected,
For both you and me.

You'll come through my window,
And break out into song,
You'll stop me on the street,
Say "I've known it all along!"

It's you, it's you,
I see you've taken the time
Through goose chases and mistakes of
Songs gone wrong in rhyme.

I am done with projects
And you, with love restricted
So will our paths cross finally
To a road so unconflicted.

What is it about the rain that makes us feel so
Limited?
Is it the water that seems to enclose on us
Wherever we may step?
Or how every living thing drops in solidarity with
The rain that falls on the pavement?

But that afternoon
We were liberated
By the art of
Racing in the rain.

What is it about running that makes us feel so
Limitless?
Was it the length of our strides,
Or the thrill of the wind?
As it rushes through our bodies as we push on
Against it, with it?

I do not recall how we got there
But we were in the middle of it
We were running, oh yes,
We were running
Forgetting in the first place
Why we were running.

I do not recall who started racing who
Was it I racing you?
Or you racing me?
Or were we simply racing each drop
That fell from the boundless sky?

The movement felt like years,
The movement felt like bliss,
The flashes came in shades of blue,
My favorite.

And when my knees began to buckle
Under the weight of the rain
You carried me on your shoulders
As we raced against the rain.
