I don't understand all this hate for the beautiful sunny Vancouver summers , had no idea we had that many rain lovers.
Don't the hours grow shorter as the days go by?
We never get to stop and open our eyes
One minute you're waiting for the sky to fall
Next you're dazzled by the beauty of it all
Rain lovers in a dangerous time
