Teardrops and Raindrops

It's of loneliness

It’s so hard
To tell
Raindrops  from teardrops

When you’re cryin’ in the rain

Do you wipe away
A raindrop
That’s fallen from the sky

When you’re cryin’ in the rain

Or do you wipe away
A tear
Fallen… from your eye

It’s not only by
 The seasoning
of saline alone

When you’re cryin’ in the rain

It’s not only by
The reasoning
That each one of has known

That you know it’s not
The issue
From the sky

And you know
It’s from both
Your heart, and from your eye

For when you’re
Truly cryin’
in the rain

You’ll taste the tears
And feel like dying
From the pain

It’s so hard…so, so hard
To tell
The raindrops from teardrops

When you’re alone…
Alone cryin’…
…Alone cryin’ in the rain…

I've forgotten which group did this song...I really liked it...

[David O Whalen (O Haolin in Celtic)]

I didn't know there was a song w/that title! I hope I haven't inadvertently plagiarized anything, though I guess over the years any and every nice phrase has already been incorporated in a song or poem! Thanks for keepin' on readin' me Marie, I appreciate ya'
