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.
