If it rains outside then I won’t mind
Good for the ground and nice for my eyes
Bar stays open anyway, in my mind the tap is always running
Now I don’t know about you, but I think there’s a lot of people running
Away from things I knew, spied in the walls which are tumbling
And I’m lying here with you
And there are so many things that we can never do
When your face is worn with worry
Makes you look so old in the sunlight
Can’t see why you’re tired, can’t be that hard when your hands are tied
And if all your stars are setting suns, where does that put me to you?
I awake to find the light bright like the morning dew
And I’m lying here with you
And there are so many things that I could say to you
(2010, Alex Pilkington)
