THE RAIN AT NIGHT
H. W. Bryce
The rain at night
Falls upon my patio
The pitter-patter
Raindrop music notes
They sing their melody
To match the melancholy
Of the blue mood
You left me in
When you said goodnight
And left me here all alone
But I don’t mind
The night is sweet
You kissed my lips
The mood so neat
I dream of you
You said you cared
The feeling was just right
The future looks so bright
Oh I day dream
You are the cream
In the coffee of my life
No bitter grounds
Left in the cup o f life
Nothing but love I’ve found
So here’s to you
I swear my oath
Forever love
To you I’m true
Raindrop melody playing on my patio
Each pitter-patter drop a memory
Of you, the sweetest person that I know
Oh how I wish that you were still here with me
The rain at night
Falls upon my patio
The pitter-patter
Raindrop music notes
They sing their melody
And troubles matter not
The rain at night reminds me that
You are the cream
In the coffee of my life
No bitter grounds
Left in the cup of life
Nothing but love I’ve found.

Thanks for the memories Ann. Never forgotten.
