lyrics

We begged for sun and summer came, but now it’s here we pray for rain
And that rain will come, and maybe stay, and we’ll be begging for that sunny day

Lye, lye-de-dye-dye
Lie, lie upon lie

You know I’d come if you called but your reticence says it all
Your marble eyes and heart of stone, your golden hair and your Dictaphone

Where you going? Where you been? With your devil’s smile and guitar strings?
With your tired legs and your aching back, with your Hunter S. and Kerouac?

The battle’s lost but you say it’s won, amid the shells and the smoking guns
You paid the price with others’ lives while their bodies rot and gather flies

A mother’s tear, a father’s sigh as the criminal pays off his alibi
A distant war, a foreign flag, oh tell us when you’re gonna bring ’em back

My heart it pounds, my face is red, as words we spoke run through my head
I sing the songs and pick the bones of all the love I’ve ever known

In the deepest dark, I know my mind, I know my heart and what I’ll find
Cos it knows loss and it knows defeat, it may be black but Lord, can’t you hear it beat?

We all know hurt, we all know fear, we all taste the salt in our tears
But there is love, and there is truth, just kiss my lips if you want the proof

We begged for sun and summer came, but now it’s here we pray for rain
