Sitting on the doorstep she cries as the rain begins to fall,
Thinking of all the possibilities- why couldnt he just call?
On and off for 3 years he has never stood her up.
Maybe he got called into work- that would be just their luck.
Still why hadnt he called? He said seven and now its half past eight.
She felt the company of the pouring rain as she sat there to wait.
Suddenly the phone rang and she hurried in asking -Mike?
Her heart fell as she dropped the phone,she ran outside to grab her bike
Riding a block and a half away,knowing he was near
She jumped off her bike feeling dreaded fear
Red lights and caution tape surrounded her as she began to cry in the rain
All she heard the policeman say was -He thought he could beat the train.
in the background played a tune unfit for this sad atmosphere,
A song from their first date that let her know he was near.
Sarah got down on her knees, lifted her head and cried,
Letting the rain hit her face, she knew her only love had died.
