Someday, on a rainy evening We’d both forget our umbrellas And bump into each other Drenched from head to toe While the traffic vanishes around us Storefronts down their shutters Lingering in our heart of hearts The sweet smell of petrichor Someday, on a rainy evening It’ll all certainly come back to us in a jiffy Broken promises and forgotten blemishes Pain that’s sweet and dear While somewhere a lonely radio Chimes an old love song Raindrops slowly turn blue Against a greying sky Someday, someday… Someday, on a rainy evening… A fading poster proudly announces An old sold-out matinee And the raindrops will hide Our tears Pittar patter…pittar patter… raindrops…tears Someday, on a rainy evening We’ll finally get caught, you’ll see Fears, tears, and unspoken despair Finally washed clean The moment frozen in time We won’t be able to run and hide The roads will all be the same Just the two of us around… Someday, on a rainy evening We’d both forget our umbrellas And bump into each other Drenched from head to toe While the traffic vanishes around us Storefronts down their shutters Lingering in our heart of hearts The sweet smell of petrichor Someday…someday… Someday…on a rainy evening…

Like so many who never really leave us The steamer sets off for the horizon Sending waves galore to the shore Even though he’s gone, the touch of his hand on mine Will persist like the memories that that surrender Where the lone Eucalyptus Bows down its head
