"I Love Rainy Days"

I love it when the skies are bright and sunny
with lovely white clouds sailing by...
but lately i seem to love rainy days
more and more
'coz it reminds me of a lonely place
long, long ago -
and the monsoon rains pouring out their love songs
so long, long ago...

They were happy memories of nostalgic moments
so long, long ago -
i wonder if you still remember the girl you 'dated'
so long, long ago...
i remember what i wore -
i remember, too, the smiles that you wore...
i remember the pain of parting -
the feeling that made the heart raw...
i remember with sorrow the look in your eyes
and how their sadness broke my heart...
and how the rain washed down the tears
and how that last look stayed in the heart
like a gaping wound that would not heal
all these long, lonely years...

And each time it rains -
the pain of that last look
came back so fresh to mind -
and the poor heart bleeds anew...
