Time: 6:16
(Click our picture to listen to the original cassette recording)
If ever it's a rainy day
I pack myself up in my room
Then chase all the clouds away
Get myself back to you
Chorus:
Well I know that you're going to cry
Tears are running from your eyes
A piece of my love you take
Is one that so often break
If ever you're miles away
I'll think of you the way you are
Your shining hair your ruby lips
Then it don't seem quite so far
Harmonica lament break:
Chorus:
Very long jam session:
Repeat 2nd. verse

(A song about getting over from being bullied)
You might think I've hidden my shame
of things I've said and done
Who am I to play this silly game?
When there's no way to tell if I've won
No way to tell if I've won
Chorus:
I won't touch
No, I won't feel
Won't hurt as much because it won't even seem real
Won't feel pain
No, and I won't feel sorrow
I'll just wait and wonder who I am tomorrow
Quick Harmonica break:
And freedom is something that everybody needs
But you can't chase it blindly
You can't run but must walk proud
No peace of mind comes with its finding
Peace of mind sure is fine, sure is fine
I'd like to find peace of mind
(Chorus)
Eclectic guitars and forsaken dreams
Are kept in closets to hide them
I think it's time to open up the doors
To do our best to find them
Do our best to find them
(Refrain)
Oh yeah!
It's time to touch
Yes it's time to feel
It's going to hurt so much
But it's the only way I'll heal
I'll feel pain and soon I'll feel sorrow
I'll wake up knowing
I'm so happy
So happy
Tomorrow
