Crying in the Rain

Crying in the Rain

You once said you wanted to cry in the rain

That no one would notice your tears.

On the way home, I looked back to this afternoon.

You seemed so happy.

Don’t you wish it could last forever?

Us, our friends, together? I do, you know?

The photographs where you’re smiling,

You’ve got new friends there.

But, you’re in pain, somehow, somewhere.

Aren’t you?

You once said you wanted to cry in the rain

That no one would notice your tears.

The rain starts to fall

Have you ever felt like you deeply cared for someone

But you didn’t have what it took to show it?

“Are you okay, my friend?”

I’m still afraid to press the ‘Send’ button

We’ve known each other for some time

Maybe I’m timid, maybe I’m a bit of a coward

And seeing someone else holding your hand,

Listening to you, that hurts

You once said you wanted to cry in the rain

That no one would notice your tears.

The rain starts to fall,

And I start to cry.

You’re holding back your tears,

Even in this rain.

I have to be strong, too, right?

But, promise me you’ll be fine, okay?
