September Rain#r&b#neo-soul#gospel

The city lights seeping through the gaps in the umbrella The road home we walked side by side The platform where I watched your receding back The scenery of yesterday is now drenched and disappearing In the puddles splashing on the asphalt That day's smile wavers and shatters Only the coldness of our clasped hands remains deep in my heart as I breathe Oh, September rain that said goodbye Wash away all the pain that has continued since that day and take it away somewhere Deepen this still-dry heart The two of us searching for an endless summer The promises we exchanged melt away with the changing of the seasons Cold raindrops tap against the windowpane, falling instead of tears of defiance. I call your name, but my voice doesn't reach you, melting away into the gray sky. All that remains is the scent of this town you loved, and the sepia-toned memories that tighten my chest. Oh, September rain that said goodbye, wash away all the pain that has continued since that day, and take it away somewhere, wetting this still-dry heart of mine. As I'm beaten by the cold rain, I chant spells to forget you. But when I close my umbrella, it's just like that day again, the never-ending rain simply staining the world.
