UMBRELLA IN THE RAIN
Written by Sara So Far
On the vast, vast shore
I want to find a boat turned over
To live under there and disappear
Blooming soul with a hidden face
I want the rain to fall and cover me
to run for shelter under a tree
Fulfill my need of something overhead
to cover up my worldly stains
I love my my umbrella
I love it when it rains
To be out in bad weather
Need a smile upon my face
I put you up and ask your wings
to hide me from the light of day
Observing all, but seen by none
till the wind comes and takes my shield away
I want my lover’s arms to hold me
surround and ’round ’round me
To live in there and disappear
in never-ending tight embrace
I want the rain to fall and cover me
to drive me to find shelter under a tree
Fulfill my need of something overhead
to cover up my worldly stains
I love my my umbrella
I love it when it rains
To be out in bad weather
I’ll paint a smile upon my face
I put you up and ask your wings
to cover up my wandering gaze
Observing all, but seen by none
till the clouds will retreat and expose my face
I feel the weight of eternity
pounding like the waves
Let me get soaked in the ocean, lost in the universe
just for my soul to be found and saved
I love my my umbrella
I love it when it rains
To be out in bad weather
The smile dripping off my face
I put you up and ask your wings
to cover up my anxious heart
Observing all, but seen by none
till the light of God’s face melts my fortress apart
