Cold rain and old pain too much to forget
Getting too old to get cold and wet
December remembered January
Gone now I move on somehow to be
Becoming the me you see somebody
Like anybody else is and yet
With maybe a little more to regret
Bring on February change the scene
If not spring not winter then but between
It comes and goes when anyone knows
About cold rain doubtless knows what I mean
The rain got colder I got older
Though still hard to kill I got over fear
Over the hill on the down side here
Having chosen to remain through old pain
Frozen here in the cold rain again
Still as I was and will be finally
Trying to forget but not quite yet
Though better off for a worse memory
Having lost everything but regret
Soon the moon and stars will be all I know
Happy at last to let the past go
Soon when I remember then to forget
When though I go at last even so
The past lets go of me and we agree
No more cold rain nor old pain for me
Forgetting though getting it I go free
Coming in again from the cold rain
Gone I move on somehow so this is how
Still as I was and I will be now
