rain and more rain

rain and more rain
the forecast for today
I want to find a patch of sky
and run away
and follow
wherever it may lead
no right foot on the brake
stomp down on the speed

          get me out of here
          as fast as I can go
          if there's anything holding me back
          I don't want to know

rain and more rain
the clouds have turned dark gray
ruining the plans
I had for today
with nothing to replace them
except another day at home
with my computer and my TV
to keep from being alone

          get me out of here
          as fast as I can 
          if there's anything holding me back
          I don't understand

rain and more rain
my umbrella is lost
my raincoat's in the backpack
and I'm paying the cost
I'm getting all wet
and there's no end in sight
give me a towel
maybe I'll be dry by tonight

          get me out of here
          as fast as I can run
          if there's anything holding me back
          I hope it's the rising sun
