After the Rain

Tell me what you dreamed of last night....
Was it something I did or said not right....
When you drifted away was I still on your mind...
Were there memories that were better left behind...
I still hear your voice in the pouring rain...
Your feelings scattered away like a passing train...
Tell me baby is it better where your standing today...
Can you still feel me when the lights go away...
You know the planets can't change the way they turn...
Yet still we rode a rainbow and got a touch burned....
Time will pass and the sun may look the same....
But after the rain, look what a rainbow we've became....

Very fludderd, its breath revealing, the sweet words you have used, They light upthe darks and the lights. In a suddled Explanation, Youre words make my heart want to slow down and enjoy the voice being spoken. Beutiful work Micheal (:
