A Chance to Hear the Rain

I'll write to give myself a chance to hear the rain

Falling at night, I'll write, I promise

Finding the outline of your face in the dark

You barely move, and with each breath

I lose you more

I'm letting myself know you

I'm letting my love show you

I'm letting myself know you

I'm letting my love show you

That this marks our existence

That everything is in process

That sometimes, all this will end

That nothing can stay the same

Nothing can stay the same

We are in a state of impermanence

Nothing can stay the same

I'm letting myself know you

I'm letting my love show you

I'm letting myself know you

I'm letting my love show you

I'll write to give myself a chance to hear the rain

(Why do I push against it? Why do I push against it?)

The darkness

And the buildings

(Why do I push against it? Why do I push against it?)

And the strangers

And the lone bird

All impermanent

(Why do I push against it? Why do I push against it?)

And how I feel about you now
