I Can't Remember (the Rain)...
I can�t remember
How the rain fell
All I know is I remember it well
And miss it in September
I can�t remember
How it was to ride that train (how I used to ride that train)
All I know is
I miss it now and then
I can�t remember
What the laughter was for
All I know is
It existed
I can�t remember
The look on his face
All I know is
I miss it
I can�t remember
The rush I felt
All I know is
I loved it
I can�t remember
Working so hard
All I know is
I earned it
I can�t remember
Living so much it hurt
All I know is
I once lived it
I can�t remember
How any of this felt
All I know is
I felt it
I can�t remember
When, how or why
All I know is I left it
I can�t remember
Why it is now
That all I have
Are memories that I�ve lived it
Memories
That I can�t remember
Of all the rain that fell
In late September
Upon the pavement
Below my room
I used to stare it down
With amazement and gloom
To be a person
On the street
Walking the pavement
Alone, the water never looked so deep
Or together
In the rain
How the wetness
Never felt so sweet
I look back
On these memories that I have
Having nothing
But the rain to bring it back
So here comes the rain
Yet once again
Creating a new memory for me
A new friend
