Waititng For Rain

When the ground drives like sand

And you're losing it from both hands

When you're flowering is denied, you're

Waiting for rain, waiting for rain

When your staging has had its day

Just indulging in shadow play

And your players need time to grow, you're

Waiting for rain, waiting for rain

When the sun finds your hiding place

And the heat of it smacks your face

When you're losing your weather eye, you're

Waiting for rain, waiting for rain

If your surroundings are watertight

Got too blase to excite

It's no real use to be

Waiting for rain
