Raindrops on a Stone
In her hands the smoking shell
Tells her of the days to come
Consequences, weeping silence
Weighing down on wife and son
Sarah please don't go (My life is torn)
We need you here forever more (I've no power left to hold)
Smile so sweet
The air's like cane
Burning along the road
Her head is tired and her body weak
She hates the things that she must know
And at last the valley's green
But there is no one left to sow
Sarah please don't go (My life is torn)
We need you here forever more (I've no power left to hold)
Smile so sweet
The air's like cane
Burning along the road
Sarah please don't go (Fine powdered gold)
Your heart was never here I know (Only floods will make me whole)
City sky
Brings tears to your eyes
Like raindrops on a stone
In her hands the smoking shell
Tells her of the days to come
