• The sound of rain taps down gently on the wet moist ground,
    you listen for the patter of feet of wild animals at bound,
    the silence is so solemn and so quiet,
    you hope for a sound...a laugh...a riot,
    but there is nothing there,
    to comfort you through this nightmare,
    you feel a tear trickle down your cheek,
    you wipe it away for the fear of being weak,
    millions of thoughts run through your mind,
    why can't the world be more kind,
    you reach for your radio at your side,
    flip on the switch and search the guide,
    you find a song and blast it loud,
    drowning out the world all around,
    you begin to feel tired as time goes by,
    you turn off the radio and and slip under the covers with a sigh,
    your mind begins to wonder with your eyes now shut,
    soon your soaring into a different world and don't know what,
    your doing there but you do know why,
    because your dreaming and in dreams you don't have to say goodbye.
