the night rains, and some may ask
"why is god crying, what are these tears for?"
outside the safety of us the storm is worse,
the thunder claps and the lightning streams out of the sky.
you laugh, you smile, you are.
so they say, this wont fade
and you agree, you nod your head through the telephone
as you say "i promise."
but i say how, because its too long.
and you say "because i love you, and that wont change"
its somehow okay.
somehow this is going to be okay,
easy no never. fun probably not,
but okay, i think yes.
you say you miss me a lot when youre gone,
that you love me so much.
the rain has stopped and the night is nice almost,
breezy 65 degrees and damp all around,
smells like fresh rain and earthy soil.
you laugh some more, i dont care that we arent but hardly conversing
cause the sound of you breathing makes me feel okay,
the way you say my name every once in awhile to see if i'm there
makes it okay that we arent otherwise talking,
and i smile because i love you.
i smile because you love me.
the breeze sways the curtains around and they frolic with the wind,
you and i are unbreakable
and the city lights are fading as the night go's on, not getting younger
its quiet except for a few cars on the freeway,
except for the soft whispers of your voice
reminding me that even the best cant have everything
and somehow i feel okay,
for some reason
if i just try
this may all work out okay.
