-Tango In The Rain-

When Clouds cry
...I feel their pain
When clouds cry
...I tango in the rain

How do they know when I am sad?
How could they tell I hurt so bad?
I cannot cry
I wonder why
My heart is heavy yet my eyes are dry

But when the flood comes
...I drown in sorrow
When the flood comes
...there is no tomorrow

I lace up my tango shoes
...from so many ladies I have to choose
I leave all the hurt on the dance floor
...then there is no pain ...anymore

And when tomorrow becomes today
I feel the hurt has lifted away
Puffy white clouds in the sky
They no longer have a need to cry.
