lyrics

Weather

You're just a man
building in sand
you plant your crops down in the dirt
you pray for rain
but not too much
you burn your candles
and you wish for luck

you cannot fight the weather
You can't control the wind
You cannot move a mountain
nor make a songbird sing

When the rain
sweeps through the town
carrying all the crops away
now we stand
staring at land
buried in mud
drowning in clay

you cannot fight the weather
You can't control the wind
You cannot move a mountain
nor make a songbird sing

There are the years
we pray for rain
dust chokes every word we speak
the wells run dry
and the blue sky is just a sign
of endless days to come

you cannot fight the weather
You can' control the wind
You cannot move a mountain
nor make a songbird sing
nor make a songbird sing
nor make a songbird sing
