Rain - Green Carnation

It rained on the day that she went away

She never returned

Searching for something she’d lost on her way

She never came back

To me

It rained on the day that I fell asleep

I never returned

Searching for something I’d lost on my way

I never came back

To life

I dreamt of a mountain that I could not seize

I dreamt of a flower that I could not smell

I dreamt of treasures that I could not possess

I dreamt of dreams that were not true

She found a mountain, but would not seize

She found a flower, but would not smell

She found treasures, but would not possess

She found a life, but would not live

To where she went I don’t know

But what I felt, she was close

She found a mountain, but would not seize

She found a flower, but would not smell

She found treasures, but would not possess

She found a life, but would not live
