Can we talk? It's been raining here in Maine, well, since it stopped snowing I guess. It's raining today. Can we agree that it does something to the psyche? Makes the angry angrier...the weird weirder...the sappy sappier? This song isn't about a real situation, just what constant rain can produce. I wrote and performed it this afternoon so don't get your hopes up and bear with me!
There's a penny in my pocket
Save it for a rainy day
There's a picture in her locket
All I do is pine away
There's a bird out on the feeder
Doesn't mind the summer rain
Unaware how much I need her
Things are dreary here in Maine
There were different times
Teardrops hard to find
Clouds invade my heart
Why'd we ever start
Never would have known the difference
If I hadn't seen her face
We just couldn't go the distance
Flowers wilting in the vase
There were different times
Teardrops hard to find
Clouds invade my heart
Why'd we ever start
