Yesterday The child dressed herself with rain And danced with upturned face As thunder rolled through her body Carrying her heart's rhythm Learning what it is to be alive Tonight I dress myself with rain And stand with upturned face As my lips are introduced to yours Accelerating my heart's rhythm Knowing what it is to be alive Tomorrow The woman will dress herself with rain And pray with upturned face As her tears fall in rivulets Restoring her heart's rhythm Remembering what it is to be alive
