When You Come to Me
Oh, the rain is coming down; it's a welcomed changing scene
And the grass has been greener; it's been a while since it's been green
Now it's tapping out a rhythm against a leaded window pane
My mind is dancing through the gray sky to a song without a name
Sometimes I let go and I'm driving down that highway
Between the cedars and the oak trees, in and out of all their shadows
Against a sun that is setting in a fall's crisper breeze
And the future is endless, it seems
That's when you come to me
Now the streets are lined with gold cast from yellow Main Street lights.
All the hustlers and the bustlers have faded with the night.
And a breath of air escapes me -- an old familiar friend
One that left a long, long time ago but still burns deep within.
I guess it hasn't been as easy as I had hoped that it would be
And the wins don't come as often as the many mercy pleas
There're things I could do better, things I better do today
But overall I'm doing okay,
I said overall I'm doing okay.
