Brings jasmine tea on a painted tray 

and bends to kiss my frown away. 

But I'm still still stuck in the August rain; 

stuck out in the cloudburst once again. 



The cover's on, the coast is clear. 

We're all battened down, only us here. 

But I'm still still stuck in the August rain; 

stuck out in the cloudburst once again. 

She walks between the lines 

and she can read my signs. 



Stuck out in the August rain: 

Out in the cloudburst once again. 



Single-minded in my gloom. 

I appear to revel in this darkened room. 

But I'm still still stuck in the August rain; 

stuck out in the cloudburst once again. 

She walks between the lines 

and she can read my signs. 

  

Stuck out in the August rain: 

Out in the cloudburst once again.
