Runaway Raindrop

Why so many tears

There's nothing left to hold you now

And you know you can't stay here To earth you will fall soon

And from earth you will rise

With 'No' in your mouth now

But there's 'Yes' in your eyes The cloudbursts are behind you

And a long fall ahead alone

Oh Runaway Raindrop

You have to go home Sometimes just for a moment, we are what we are

A bag full of second chances, overflowed and spilling out

Down, over and around the original burying ground

Where everyone gets even and everything is as clear as can be

Unending, unalone, into it you come and out of it you'll go

No more running, no more becoming

It takes a flake to know one and here you are

On the edge of yourself and ready to leap

Built to last only as long as snow upon the sea Say what you will

Say it's all a dream

But if you stay where you are now

You may never leave It's time to surrender

It's time to awake

Waiting is for buzzards

Wolves never wait A wolf never waits... The closer you look

The farther it looks away

You're moving on now

And they're here to stay
