Summer Rain

A number up
Returning to the Sun
I see you, friend
The colour of
Your eyes
In ninety nine
Sparkling
With the love
That you gave
In the last hours of the century
It was us
Versus the world
Man I can't tell for the life of me
Or see
You grew up believing
You'd come good someday
Now the days of life are fleeting
Like the summer rain

With battle lost
A jar to raise the past
To my old friend
Again
You never guess
Until the very last
How things can be
All the time
That you walked
With the black dog
Indiscriminate
You were gold
But were lost
And I can't tell for the life of me
Or see
How you gave up believing
You'd come good someday
Now days of life repeating
Like the summer rain

How you gave up believing
You'd come good someday
Now days of life repeating
Like the summer rain
