Rain Drops

I listen as the rain drops hit the window.
They remind me of a happier time.
When we were in love.
When we needed each other.

I listen as the rain drops hit the window.
They remind me of the sparkle in your eyes.
When I told you I loved you.
When we held each other through the night.

I listen as the rain drops hit the window.
They remind me of your kiss.
When I had a cold and you'd kiss me anyway.
When you would do anything for me.

I listen as the rain drops hit the window.
They remind me of your soft voice.
When you would whisper 'I love you' in my ear.
When you would sing me to sleep.

I listen as the rain drops hit the window.
They remind me of when you left.
When I was broken-hearted.
When I felt I was dying.

I listen as the rain drops hit the window.
They remind me of the hard times.
When I hated life.
When I hated you for doing what you thought was best.

I listen as the rain drops hit the window.
They remind me of yesterday.
When I fell in love again.
When I thanked you for letting me go..
