Still waiting for the rainy you swore would come (it's nearly five years late). Those vows I never should have made to the man who loves me though I never felt the same. But when he explained, "We'll restart the human race!" I told myself love was for the olden days - soon all will change But I guess nobody told me that the world could live through the night. And this morning I could have left you but I'm chained to higher ground, So maybe I'll stay so unkind that we'll both wish we had drowned in the ocean that has yet to arrive "No registries in '99!" to quote Valerie and the pamphlets she lives by. Umbrellas, then, of every size came flooding in. I almost saw the rising tide in the teary eyes that lined the chapel stairs. They all said "You put the Eve in New Year's while we prayed for Cain."
