It was the early morning, a gray morning,
When the clouds rolled onto the sky.
We should've seen it as a forewarning,
But we were too shy, much too shy.
Too shy to show the world some power,
So the clouds rolled and roiled,
And the rain fell down in a shower,
Wet and thick as oil.
And in the falling ocean,
We stood and laughed;
Voices full of emotion,
Worry cut in half.
