Early Autumn Writing

Je ne sais pas (I don't know)

 by Alan Ewing

I'll go my way 

You go yours

We both have a say

As we close the door

And so on I go

As she goes on too

Break-ups are just so

Could it have grown?

Who's to say?

Je ne sais pas

I don't know, I don't know

I don't know

What could have been

Je ne sais pas

Love's labour lost

Amongst the loss

Take the road 

At great cost

Take a way

Out of trouble's woes

Find another day

To rake over the coals

Je ne sais pas

I don't know, I don't know

I don't know

What could have been

Je ne sais pas

To the end of all days

Will be remembered ways

Such friends to see

Lest was not to be

In the days of glory

 Will be found the story

And discover

The ending

Of a love

That lies pending

Embers still flicker

In the fading fire

Love still a giver

In the form of desire

Come the raging storm

Is held a little flame

Solace becomes the norm

The candle flickers again

Je ne sais pas

I don't know, I don't know

I don't know

What could have been

Je ne sais pas

Let It Rain

Bring it on down
No more clowns
Please God
Let it rain
Let It rain
Let It rain

I don't believe
Hard to conceive
Please Lord
Let it rain
Let it rain
Let it rain

Song of yesterday
As I now pray
My Messiah
Let it rain
Let it rain
Let It rain

A second chance
For such romance
Dear God
Let it rain
Let it rain
Let it rain

Person to be
So close to me
Oh my Lord
Let it rain
Let it rain
Let it rain

Love so lost
At great cost
Oh my Saviour
Let It rain
Let it rain
Let it rain

I give tears
Masks my fears
Oh Holy One
Let it rain
Let it rain
Let it rain
