'Till I'm Found

Here I’m calm and at peace

I hear the rain drops hit the trees

Then they plop and bounce off the ground,

I think I’ll hide here ‘till I’m found

We four strangers remain still and quiet

Enjoying, on our own, nature’s riot

Others hustle and run around,

But I think I’ll hide here, ‘till I’m found

I know you’re out there in a crowd,

Having fun and being loud

But I sit here and don’t make a sound

Yet, I think I’ll hide here, ‘till I’m found.

The rain picks up; it starts to pour,

You take her home, a “hot score”

I see you go and feel my heart pound,

Still, I think I’ll hide here, ‘till I’m found.

I hear your voice, yet you seem so distant.

Wish I could forget, just for an instant,

For I feel as though my heart has drowned,

So I think I’ll hide here, ‘till I’m found.

You stole it from me, my love for rain,

Now the only thing I feel is pain

What was a smile is now a frown,

Yeah, I think I’ll hide here, ‘till I’m found

But then you run and hold me in your embrace

I forget everything: time and space,

For I feel this was meant to be.

Thank you, you finally found me.

Then I awake from this tempting dream

With a pain so strong I could almost scream.

It’s been years now since you’ve been around,

Years that I’ve been waiting, never to be found…
