 | starjewel | I wanted it to rain today The splash of crystal to caress my skin
 I wanted the grey clouds to stay
 Beads to cascade from the sky, and me drinking all of them in
 So that I could dance and sing and play, I wanted it to rain today.
 
 I wanted it to rain ya know?
 And splash through my smiling refelection
 I wanted to run, to just go and go
 Having no sense at all of direction
 So that I could soar, fly free, and float, I wanted it to rain you know?
 
 I wanted it to rain ya see?
 Just light and dusty sprinkles
 Would have liked a light drizzle just for me
 So I could watch the puddle's wrinkles
 So that I could scat, and splash tap dancing feet, I wanted it to rain ya see?
 
 I wanted to see you standing there soaking,
 That shy unsure smile still gracing your face
 When I told you I loved you, I wasn't joking
 Can't you still feel my lingering embrace?
 So that I could stop wishing and dreaming and hoping, I wanted to see you there soaking.
 
 I wanted it to rain today
 So that I could dance and sing and play.
 I wanted it to rain ya know?
 So that I could soar, fly free, and float.
 I wanted it to rain ya see?
 So that I could scat, and splash tap dancing feet.
 I wanted to see you there soaking,
 So that I could stop wishing and dreaming and hoping,
 That it would rain today.

 | AntiJester | I want it to STORM when I am mad... 
 and I want it rain hard and strait when I am lonely, with a soft rumble far away. I always wonder if the light crash is pointing me in the direction of you.
 
 And when I am with you, I want to hear the patter of old rain against my bedroom windows, with surpising booms that make you hold me even tigher.
