When It Rains
LYRICS...
Moving down these avenues
I catch another glimpse of you
And wave

When it rains

You're looking very much the same
It's funny how we meet here
When it rains

When it rains

A glass cafe
Step inside
I like to talk
With you sometimes

When it rains

You're looking very much the same
You glance at me
And I can feel how much I've changed

When it rains

It's just another ghost of you
We say goodbye
And go our separate ways

When it rains

Moving down these avenues
I catch another glimpse of you
And wave

When it rains

When it rains

NOTES...
"Talking to ghosts again. I've walked through London for over thirty years now, and it takes that long for certain aspects of it to begin to emerge. When you allow yourself to drift, you begin to feel the tides in the streets. There are certain places which seem to exist in other times. Also there are places where time moves at different rates. It often feels as if London flows into other cities at certain points. You only have to walk there and you see shop windows from 1956 and glimpse rooms and vistas and people who seem to belong to places and times you half remember. You recognise faces then realise they must be much older now. When you allow yourself to become aligned in the drift, magnetic coincidences occur. When you go back years later you can still find traces and fragments."
