Rain Song



When I close my eyes, I still see your face.

When I lick my lips, I still taste your kiss.

When I say your name, my heart is still empty.

You hurt me greatly, I will delay to forgive.

You made me suffer, I trust you no longer.

Like a rose dying, my heart is wilting.

Longing for the rain, a shower of love, a sprinkle of honesty and a dash of respect.

Let the clouds open up and flood my life.
