Yesterday I heard the rain whispering your name

Asking where you'd gone


It fell softly from the clouds on the silent crowds


As I wandered on




Out of doorways


Black umbrellas came to pursue me

Faceless people as they passed were looking through me


No one knew me




Yesterday I shut my eyes


Face-up to the skies, drinking in the rain


But your image still was there floating in the air

Brighter than a flame





Yesterday I saw a city

Full of shadows, without pity


And I heard the steady rain whispering your name


Whispering your name




Yesterday I saw a city


Full of shadows, without pity

And I heard the steady rain whispering your name


Whispering your name
