alone in your storm
won't you let me come in?
I brought an umbrella
I could be your friend
I have a spare raincoat,
galoshes and all
we could hang out together
and watch the rain fall
the weather around you
is sunny and mild
but raindrops have drowned you
since you were a child
what once was a shower
is now a monsoon
you can't feel the sun
and you can't see the moon
I know the wild wind wants
to blow down your door
your heart took the blast
but it won't take much more
a storm can be wonderful
exciting and strong
but not if it batters you all
your life long
unbatten the hatches
a rainbow is rising
comeon out and see
it just might be surprising
