 Postponed do to Rain
-Now baby this may sound a little mondane.
-But my flights been postponed, do to rain.
-I know that you know.
-That I wanna be where ever you are.
-And if I could,
-I would,
-Just go.
-But even though
-You're there,
-And I'm here
-Our souls still won't let go.
-Now this may sound a little mondane.
-But my flight's been postponed, do to rain.
-I know that today's date is 8-0-8.
-And that's our anniversy date.
-But it's 12:38 & I'm at my gate.
-It's not my fault that the plane's late.

-So say prayer & don't wait by the phone.

-Cuz only God & the angels know when I'll be home.

-Kiss the kids, tell em I love em & good night 1-4-3.

 

Rayne
-Now you say your name is Rayne?
-A beautiful woman deserves a beautiful name.
-I almost named baby girl something the same.
-See I was gonna name her Jersey Rain.
-But instead I named her Brooklyn Rae.
-So um….your waiting for the LAX?
-I’m headed east & you’re headed west.
-Rumor is there’s a cozy little coffee house around the corner & the muffins there are the best.
-But if you don’t want a cup of Jo or something to eat.
-I know where there’s a hole in the wall nearby all drinks on me.
-(Rayne says) “That all sounds good, but that just ain’t me. I’d rather go for a walk. I take pix for The Scene.”
-Oh you’re a photographer well I DJ write & sing.
-Maybe we can meet each other half way business with pleasure & let it do what it do.
-I gotta host an open mic but I already told them my flights been postponed due to rain Boo.
-And Rayne
-That rain…
-Is you.
