Almost Wet

Lyrics by Howard Anshell

 

Let it rain
Down on me!
Let the waters of the earth
Flow down on me!
I can feel the tide,
Rushing to the shore by the sea.
Let it flow
Right through me!
I want to know what it does to me!
I can feel the wind,
Brushing past the cells of my skin!
I can feel the clouds,
Waiting to liquefy—
By the water shall you purify!
I’m floating
On a sea of checkerboard spheres—
Not quite knowing
Just exactly what brought me here.
I see a feeling
Coming my way;
Shock sets me a reeling –
I guess I’ll have to give way!
Thunder and lightning
Cuts me to the bone!
It’s not frightening –
It’s going to bring me on home!
And I’m floating
On vibrations of spheres,
I’m careening,
All my senses aware!
Whatever it was,
I want to do it again!
I’ve got some things to wash out,
So, let it rain!
I can feel
The moon;
Tears come into my eyes—
Like the water shall I
Rise!
