Wednesday's Rain


Listening to the Commotions
Looking at the laundry
Wondering if it'll ever be done
Outside it's raining
Really need a little sun
Flowers in the rising tide
Words in the wind
While you read between the lines
Again

Radio plays louder than the rain
Songs I've remembered wrong
And words that stayed the same

Windscreen wiper rhythms
Punctuate the morning run
Lights stop, stop, go
Crazy people on their credit phones
Swerving across the road
As they dodge and jive
Waiting in the fast lane
For that extra mile
Home

Wednesday's rain got me feeling blue
Hoping for Thursday soon
For a dry day and summer June

Coffee and a bag of crisps
While we all couldn't care less
Those tears are little more than
Water running down the drain
Everyone connects but no one ever sees
The future is out there
Already on its knees
Flowers in the rising tide
Again

Radio plays louder than the rain
Songs I've remembered wrong
And words that stayed the same

Wednesday's rain got me feeling blue
Hoping for Thursday soon
For a dry day and summer June
