Umbrellas

[Verse 1]
I'm walking down the street in the rain
My umbrella high above my head
High above my head (High above my head)

[Verse 2]
Puddles along the wet sidewalks and gutters
Rain lightly falling from the sky
Lightly falling from the sky (Lightly falling from the sky)

[Verse 3]
Red and green and free design
Umbrellas are in bloom
Nourished by the rain (Nourished by the rain)

[Verse 1]
I'm walking down the street in the rain
My umbrella high above my head
High above my head (High above my head)

[Bridge]
Through the clouds, the blackness and rain
I see the lightning strike as though it were pain
Rain falling hard on a sea of umbrellas
A colorful bottomless ocean
Then the wind it blows and it blows
I see the umbrellas bend, they creak and they groan
Gusting down alleys and through streets of cars
Causing unbottled, unspent commotion

[Interlude]

[Bridge]
I spy a patch of blue through a cloud
A patch of blue through a brandy shroud

[Outro]
Hopefully umbrellas hide and shrink and close
As the noonday sun peeps through the clouds
