Tears Fall in Silence




A leaf twirled through my window and landed in my hand
my tears fall in silence when a stranger steals my thoughts

so i cast a glance to where my world is
i let my eyes follow the wind
my tears fall in silence when my stranger steals my thoughts

i remember the night when i knew of a love song of rain
my tears fall in silence when my stranger fills my thoughts

and i wonder.....

what would i see when my pain ends?
what would i see when my pain ends?
what would be left of me?
i wonder.....

a raindrop kissed me on my forehead
and my tears fell in silence
and my stranger filled my thoughts

my tears fall in silence
and my stranger.....steals my thoughts

(This song has been written a long time back, in fact it is among one of my first. Sometimes when words could not be said, poetry to oneself is best way. I don't want to spoil the beauty of this by writing more prose here.
This is by the way, of course dedicated to the 'stranger' [:P].
Although this song has a tinge to sadness to it, I insist the piece is innately happy, no way even remotely sad)

Raindrops keep fallin' on my head
And just like the guy whose feet are too big for his bed
Nothin' seems to fit
Those raindrops are fallin' on my head, they keep fallin'

So I just did me some talkin' to the sun
And I said I didn't like the way he got things done
Sleepin' on the job
Those raindrops are fallin' on my head, they keep fallin'

But there's one thing I know
The blues they send to meet me won't defeat me
It won't be long till happiness steps up to greet me

Raindrops keep fallin' on my head
But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turnin' red
Cryin's not for me
'Cause I'm never gonna stop the rain by complainin'
Because I'm free
Nothin's worryin' me

It won't be long till happiness steps up to greet me

Raindrops keep fallin' on my head
But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turnin' red
Cryin's not for me
'Cause I'm never gonna stop the rain by complainin'
Because I'm free
Nothin's worryin' me
