You're as right as rain
Mellow as a shower on a summer's day
You're as right as rain
Softer than a flower, sweet as marmalade
You're made that way
Why do people insist on seeing your softness when you're trying to be tough?
I guess people see it as some kind of challenge where they want to pull you apart so that they can see what makes you tick. You might have lost count the number of times that people have put you through the wringer hoping to bring you to your knees and try to break you. There is something tender and beautiful about being able to be mellow, be refreshing in some sense, where you are a welcome addition to anybody's any given day. Has anybody seen you made that way? Who has been lucky enough to get close to you? You should never allow your vulnerability to shine through unless you're deliberately trying to build your resilience or your intentions are to put others before yourself.
Every man has a secret dream
Quiet thoughts trap his inner need
To open and tell someone
Of the things he's hiding from
Sometimes it's a childish game
We play but I don't feel that way
What secret dream do you have? I always seem to uncover the secret dreams of people who don't even realise that they're summoning me to share it. In the process, there might be misunderstandings about what transpires when we are trying to make sense of the world. Instead situations change and we are forced to try and learn the new rules of the game, who is teaching these rules and develop a strategy to learn how to be successful in this game. But after a while, you snap out of the childish games and no longer want to play in games that serve no real purpose in your destiny, but in fact, those games distract you and detract from your mission. There's no more time for you to sacrifice your energy, time and purpose to serve someone else who doesn't work for their own.
As a boy I learned how to hide
All too well how to keep inside
The way I felt about a girl
How to keep her in my world
Strange how love can change your head
You made me see I've been misled
I don't know about you, but too many people throw love around like it's going out of fashion. People do things to try and keep you in their lives. They rely on their cunning and guile to keep you in their lives. You never really understand it, or maybe you're just deluding yourself by not recognising things for how they truly are - so you have to step back and think, no, I don't want to be kept in your world if it means it compromises my own. You might be sick of the constant testing and the unnecessary dramas that people seem intent on laying at your doorstep. If you are finding that love is changing your head, go sit down and close your eyes. Focus and meditate. Learn to listen to your own breathing and value yourself and what you need to do. Pretty soon you will no longer be misled.
'Cause you're right as rain
Mellow as a shower on a summer's day
You're as right as rain
Try and be true to yourself. Sometimes you second guess yourself because it's easier said than done. You never really know whether what everyone is doing is going to be in your best interests. I try to remember so many different golden moments with people I can no longer be with. You start to think about those memories that slowly fade from your mind unless you visit those little rooms in your head, remembering how people made you feel and when life seemed simpler. Are you somebody's mellow shower on a summer's day? I guess we'll never know unless they're brave enough to be completely honest with you and learn how to truly appreciate you. But as long as you know, that no matter what happens, no matter where you are, you're as right as rain. . .
