Speak to Me (M. Russell)
Looking out my window
On a wet Octobers’ eve
The autumn rain indifferently
Beats the ghosts of summer’s leaves
Listening to reflections
Off the looking-glass streets
I hear my spirit wondering
When do age and wisdom meet
Come on raindrops speak to me
Have you nothing to say
Did you learn up in heaven
How to shine through the gathering grey
My hands tell me stories
Of labour, ire and love
A billion strums on a guitar
Each a gift from above
Whispering contemplations
Of what I’ve left behind
It won’t be long till the snow flies
And I must stay inside
Come on raindrops speak to me
Have you nothing to say
Did you learn up in heaven
How to shine through the gathering grey
