Paul Simon
Kathy’s Song
[Verse 1]
I hear the drizzle of the rain
Like a memory it falls
Soft and warm, continuing
Tapping on my roof and walls

[Verse 2]
And from the shelter of my mind
Through the window of my eyes
I gaze beyond the rain-drenched streets
To England, where my heart lies

[Verse 3]
My mind's distracted and diffused
My thoughts are many miles away
They lie with you when you're asleep
And kiss you when you start your day

[Verse 4]
And a song I was writing is left undone
I don't know why I spend my time
Writing songs I can't believe
With words that tear and strain to rhyme

[Verse 5]
And so you see, I have come to doubt
All that I once held as true
I stand alone without beliefs
The only truth I know is you
[Verse 6]
And as I watch the drops of rain
Weave their weary paths and die
I know that I am like the rain
There but for the grace of you, go I
