And The Rain - The Idle Race

Crystal coloured glass

Containing pictures of my past

And wonders

That you never even dreamed

Light reflecting shades

Of my childhood younger days

And rainbows sometimes

Never having rained

Times that went so fast

Good times that couldn't last

Like lightning never striking twice

Years that weren't so bad

The days that weren't so bright

Like clouds that formed

And broke up over night

I climb the twisting path of fate

And I look down on the village far below

And the rain comes

And mingles with my tears

Why I'm crying I will never know

The misty image forms

Of a time not now recalled

A wave then ripples on a broken shore

Past present future too

Come flashing into view

Like thunder claps

That cannot be ignored

And the wind blows

Through the corridors of years

And my hair is white

Many winter snows

And the rain comes

And mingles with my tears

Why I'm crying

I will never know

I climb the twisting path of fate

And I look down

On the village far below

And the rain comes

And mingles with my tears

Why I'm crying I will never know

And the rain comes

And mingles with my tears

Why I'm crying

I will never know
