Unexpected

Under my umbrella
the first time we kissed
together we shivered
in April's cool mist

How distant that night seems
a lifetime ago
I knew something was there
but I didn't know

That one day I'd love you
the way I do now
wish I could explain it
but I don't know how.

To be swept away by love,
I never thought I would
to could care for someone this much
I never knew I could

But your pain makes me hurt
and your tears make me cry
your bad days bring me down
your absence makes me sigh

I feel bad when you're frustrated
I feel down when you fall
I feel low when you're discouraged
I can't stand it at all

Raindrops grace my roof so gently
in my room, I lie around
droplets roll across my window
on their journey to the ground

The rain arrived tonight, unexpected
a little bit like you
love has seeped into my life
and I'm reminded of those few

Times under my umbrella
precious moments of bliss
hand in hand we ventured
into April's cool mist

How distant those nights seem
less than two years ago
I care for you so much more
than these few words could show.
