Light now is starting to fade
All the beds are still unmade
Candles burn flames glimmer higher
Bread is hot, clothes now are dry
Mmm Mmm Mmm
Mmm Mmm Mmm
Mmm Mmm Mmm
Mmm Mmm Mmm
Annie is running with pride
With her hand she caught a fly
Janis is painting her room
Red and blue expiring her doom
Lucy at the window, fixing the glass
To not let the cold wind inside
Chris now he stares at the egg
He left it for the scruffy fox
That hasn’t come yet
La La La La La La La
La La La La La La La
Iris is washing her feet
Thinking it could not be more sweet
Dancing in the forest with Herne
Barefoot and close to the barn
“Dreams are still awake
they’re too starving to sleep.”
Mary and Will whisper to Chris
He’s still staring at the egg
He left it for the scruffy fox
That hasn’t come yet, hasn’t come yet
La La La La La La La
La La La La La La La
La La La La La La La La La La

Burning Rain

" Oh Lord , something calls me
electric the wind grows inside of me
Is that your will? Is that your hand?
I hear the trees screaming all over the land
Under my feet , right under my feet
a fierce thudding right under my feet
I can't stand still , the earth shivers
it has no fear but it has just got the fever
My angel has his wings in the sand
now he's just walking , walking on the land
Is this the end? Is this the end?
He has no warrant but just his own hands
How many lives we live in a day
and how many more we wish we had lived:
"If you choose to go , if you choose to go
nobody blames you then you gotta go"
There there grows the strange fruit
bitter and wild down to the roots
I thought I heard them say , I heard 'em say:
"You gotta go or you gotta stay"
Red and thick is the rain
these drops burn my skin again
but here I wanna stay, here I'm gonna stay
here singing this song under this burning rain "
Y
