Dance Between The Raindrops
Michael Nesmith
"Dance between the raindrops,"
Were the last words that he said
As I tumbled headlong into the storm.
So rising to the challenge
I wrestled with the door
Using what I thought was my good arm.
But there is no way in
To where you already are.
There is no way out of everywhere.
No satisfaction can come
To that which is fulfilled,
And all the lies will fall away with the cares.
Leave the door closed loosely
So the messenger will know
That it's all right to just walk in.
This fear that you've been feeling
Has no substance of its own
And though the battle rages fiercely, you will win.
Oh, there is no way in
To where you already are.
There is no way out of everywhere.
No satisfaction can come
To that which is fulfilled,
And all the lies fall away with the cares.
