Heels

Fumbling for my keys I just want to go inside It’s colder now, it’s raining and it’s dark Forgot to feed the kitty I’m so unattentive…shame on me I sit at the window Watching the rain fall, hearing the splash across the panes It’s a cold, humid night I’ll open the screen I hear your heels click Coming down the street Just around the corner Someone I don’t know is giving a light Waiting for you to see me In the rain I can’t wait Boots in the rain, clicking heels My windows sigh as I wait for you My dreams are only for tonight Maybe or for all time? For you they are such a real sight in my mind You are under my skin I’m so blind Your heels click in my mind Now light me up inside Justify my peace In my peace of life Misty in my window I should imagine from the outside Drops that trickle from a slicker Running down into the street, how are we supposed to meet? Clicking of your boots in the street Go up the stairs, ring the bell and see me At the window with tears in my eyes I can see you through the salty cries Locking the door behind me My seat from the window fades You kick off your boots, the clicking fades Rain has turned to all things that I pray Everything is right
