Bring The Rain

Is this the end or the calm before the storm?
Is this the wind we used to fly on?
It spins the dust where once it whistled through the corn
The barren ground as hard as iron.

But I can sense a change is coming
A sudden stillness in the air
I can see the back clouds brewing
Dark descending everywhere.

So bring the rain
Flood the skies
'Til the earth
Is fit to burst
Springing into life.

There's a place where a desert orchid grows
Divines the water from the fire
A proud reminder of a never ending hope
A symbol of the heart's desire.

And I can hear a church bell ringing
Somewhere in a far off town
Somewhere there's a songbird singing
All that's gone must come around.

So bring the rain
Flood the skies
'Til the earth
Is fit to burst
Springing into life
Thunderclouds
Fill the skies
'Til the earth
Is fit to burst
Springing into life.

Is this the end or the calm before the storm?
Is this the wind we used to fly on?

Bring the rain
Flood the skies
'Til the earth
Is fit to burst
Springing into life.

Spring, spring, spring, it's springing
Spring, spring, a new beginning
Teeming in the rolling rivers
Rivers running rife
Spring, spring, spring, it's springing
Spring, spring, a new beginning
'Til the earth
Is fit to burst
Springing into life.
