Song of the Rain-1975

Naked in the Rain
   The clown sat speechless, looking in his mirror
unable to remember how to paint his face
Staring at the image, slowly getting clearer
Wondering if his fear or his heart would win the race

      When it dawns on you
      what it takes from you
  living under clouds of pain
       there's a storm in you
   you don't know what to do
Just when you think you're going insane
     you lie naked in the rain
                again

Fluttering pages of faces
        no two alike
Choice is your soul's moment
        for its light to strike

music David Crosby
