It Only Rains In Melbourne At Night
by Paul McCann
Eating in a resto with the sounds of slurps and burbs
and the busker on the corner with a flute.
Somewhere in between the noodles in a bowl ,
I’m trying to fill a silver spoon up with some soup
Outside on the pavement are Aussie’s with a happy vibe
walking along in the Melbourne twilight ,
the sun’s almost gone before the light of dawn ,
it’s time to sleep because it only rains here at night .
It only rains in Melbourne at night
and when the morning comes around
all the rain has gone away.
Everybody’s got a number after hours ,
before the bars have closed there’s still so much left to say .
It only rains in Melbourne at night
when dreams take flight on board trams
sailing to the stars shining bright .
Then when trams return on the tracks
no one ever asks
does anyone know if it rained last night ..
