Kathy's Song Lyrics - 1964-1993 - Paul Simon

I hear the drizzle of the rain 

Like a memory it falls 

Soft and warm, continuing 

Tapping on my roof and walls 

And from the shelter of my mind 

Through the window of my eyes 

I gaze beyond the rain-drenched streets 

To England, where my heart lies 

My mind's distracted and diffused 

My thoughts are many miles away 

They lie with you when you're asleep 

And kiss you when you start your day 

And the song I was writing is left undone 

I don't know why I spend my time 

Writing songs I can't believe 

With words that tear and strain to rhyme 

So you see, I have come to doubt 

All that I once held as true 

I stand alone without beliefs 

The only truth I know is you 

And as I watch the drops of rain 

Weave their weary paths and die 

I know that I am like the rain 

There but for the grace of you, go I
