If it's not raining you can see right down the hill from my friend's window 
To the church at the foot of the council flats that I pass when I walk home 
And here I am with time on my hands and newsprint on my elbows 
And she's all heart 
But I'm all thumbs 
And we're both just skin and bones 
My life is changing 
Sometimes it feels as though it changes with the weather 
It was winter for a while but now the sun is shining through 
She laughs at that old saying ‘let a smile be your umbrella' 
I tell her ‘the next time that it's raining I will hold it over you' 
I like the way that she looks at me 
I like every little bit of this 
When she's here I'm always happy 
And when she's not I'm happyish 
Today it's raining 
There is nowhere I would rather be than this room 
Let's close the doors until the air hangs heavy with wet wool 
I'm feeling reckless: let's have breakfast in the middle of the afternoon 
She's all smiles 
And I'm also 
And we're always wonderful
