Rainbow Days Come After Rain And Both Make Life A Little Less Plain

from Besides, Are we playing around out here, or do we mean what we say? by Drew Danburry

/

lyrics

With a subtle southwesterly wind she caresses the strings with the bow
the bow she'd used for years
As the dust lingered more on the floor than the case where forgotten she had left
so many of her fears, she left so many fears
Raised to be frugal and chaste with an eye that searched for everything
everything wholesome and plain
Knowing each new day brought many delights with subtle nuances unappreciatively the same
unappreciated, more like obliterated
there was a fog so thick you couldn't cut through it carrying a cold so damp
it just crept into your bones diffusing light like independence day sparklers
vivacious hues and tones
and you'd hear voices before you'd see a face proclaiming fear that the rain
would drown the place
the same rain that you could touch and taste as if snow
bringing the shakes that wouldn't dream of letting go
But the call of the morning sun gently reminded her window sill of much better days
Before she'd fallen into the uneasy malady she described as a delitescent malaise
The days when the cry of the prairie left her speechless enamored and whole
she felt so full
the taut strings untightened present fears unfrightened summer days untainted
by the cold
but now each day she wakes and each new day softly breaks
and she rises with a gentle sigh
like the fluttering of wings she caresses the strings with the comfort
she's hoping to find
I hope she finds it...
