about

This song is about abandonment and control I think. It might be better live.

lyrics

Cue the Rain
Rick Parnell

The ice on the lake doesn't look very safe
I think I'll just stay where I am
And write you this note
Stuff it in something that floats
You'll find it washed up on the sand
I'm not asking for favors
I think I'll remain here
Alone though you say you're still near
With no one to talk to
I might have a breakthrough
Or breakdown by all of my fears

Cause she's already gone
Yes she's already gone
She's already gone
Cue the rain

I've got a new understanding of being alone
No matter - I'm where I should be
And if I should call you
Or write you a thought
It'll be one with which you agree
I won't be finding the way back
I'll be building a new track
To one that gives me just what I need
A someone who wants me
And a license to break free
I'll learn how to run and then walk

Cause she's already gone
Yes she's already gone
She's already gone
Cue the rain

I was gifted with reason
And a passion to fly
Abandon the sunrise
There's clouds in the sky
Abandon this morning
There's nothing left to gain
Don't trust a lover
Find comfort in the rain

Cause she's already gone
Yes she's already gone
She's already gone
Cue the rain
