But it rained

Wrapped in a polythene tucked away safe in my mind
a little goodbye maybe or just a passing smile

the birds fly away to the southern sky searching a home
a bunch of paper flowers or a little boy left all alone
can somebody hear me i'm screaming from so far away
morning who will calm you now, the evening is eclipsed again
Well does life get any better
more yesterday than today
how i thought the sun would shine tomorrow
but it rained . . .
They justified the cause for which daddy might give up his life
it's been so long, so long a time, still i miss daddy at night
the ache is long gone but the never keeps staring along
the waters in the seas are high
and all the sand castles have drowned
Well does life get any better
more yesterday than today
how i thought the sun would shine tomorrow
but it rained . . .
