Rain

Lyrics:
Underneath my feet I feel the urban heat
as it rises up to greet the cooling air.
Above me and around me the atmosphere,
heavily saturated with condensing vapour.
Through my eager eyes I see the evening sky
donning its cloak of cloudy grey
and notice too how its distant horizon is leaden
and brimming full with anticipation.
For soon will come the long-awaited rain.
Those shimmering, silent, liquid spheres
that fall gently like reluctant tears
upon the dry and dusty ground.
Underneath my feet I feel the urban heat
as it rises up to greet the cooling air.
Above me and around me the atmosphere,
heavily saturated with condensing vapour.
Through my eager eyes I see the evening sky
donning its cloak of cloudy grey
and notice too how its distant horizon is leaden
and brimming full with anticipation.
For soon will come the long-awaited rain.
Those shimmering, silent, liquid spheres
that fall gently like reluctant tears
upon the dry and dusty ground.
