'Gainst the foggy windowpanes

I watch the raindrops spatter

'Gainst the foggy windowpanes

*

On the roof, gentle patter

Pondering my heart's desires

I watch the raindrops spatter

*

Trying to quell love's fires

Wanting only for your love

Pondering my heart's desires

*

Darkened clouds around, above

I cling to a hope, a dream

Wanting only for your love

*

But at last, I see a gleam

In your eyes, mirrored in mine

I cling to a hope, a dream

*

This is more than just a sign

'Gainst the foggy windowpanes

In your eyes, mirrored in mine

'Gainst the foggy windowpanes

*
