Soaked By The Rain

by Dark Angel - Pisces

I took a very long walk today
Finally made it to your place
My eyes were bloodshot and cheeks were stained
From the teardrops that were pouring down my face.

I stood there on the concrete sidewalk
Looking towards your front door
Wanting so badly to walk up and give it a knock
But hurting to badly inside my souls core.

I saw a curtain move slightly
So I walked off slowly, not wanting to pry
My mind told me to stop, to just go talk to you
But my heart said it couldn't take it and all I could do was cry.

As I was walking along
The sky turned to a dim gray
Knowing it was going to storm soon
I still couldn't bring myself to stray.

I walked back toward your place
Telling myself that I had to talk to you tonight
But somehow I just couldn't bring myself to do it
My sorrows have blocked out my light.

I made it to the spot in front of your house again
And stood there hoping you would notice me
But an hour had gone by and there was nothing
I had put myself in a position where I shouldn't be.

I looked toward the road and decided it was time to head home
But I turned around one more time to look back
Spying you push the curtain out of the way
So you could see me through the little crack.

I watched you for a moment
Causing my heart to fill with pain
And all the while you just watched me
As I got soaked by the rain.
