Yesterday I heard the rain,
whispering your name, asking where you'd gone
It fell softly from the clouds
on the silent crowds, as I wandered on.
Out of doorways black umbrellas came to pursue me
Faceless people as they passed were looking through me,
no-one knew me.
Yesterday I shut my eyes, face-up to the skies,
drinking in the rain
But your image still was there,
floating in the air, brighter than a flame.

Yesterday I saw a city
full of shadows without pity
And I heard the steady rain
