Hard Rain

The words came like a hard rain

And your smile changed like a hurricane

Your breath smells like cardamom

And the words came just like a hard rain

I recall you said you missed me

I was afraid I acted desperately

I recall you said it for hours

Then again it doesn't matter

I never tried, I never dared, I wish I'd said something

But I've been standing outside your door

At least that's something

Your breath smells like cardamom

And the words came just like a hard rain

I try to tell myself at night

When the dusty old pictures are all out of sight

That I think I will be alright

Just don't come closer morning light
