China White III

Our land is so terribly dry
And we see no crop without the raindrops
Only the weeds will survive
And keep our seeds from thriving
Will we ever see the spring

I’ve got my eye on you
And these eyes have a plan
(These eyes have a plan)
I’ve got my eyes on you
And they weep and you stand
Now won’t you please grow for me

I swore I’d never leave your side
But I’m exhausted
I need my rest
And even when I close my eyes
All these tears continue
And they will find their way to you

I’ve got my eye on you
And these eyes have a plan
(These eyes have a plan)
I’ve got my eyes on you
And they weep and you stand
Now, won’t you please grow for me

I thought I’d never see the day
When the clouds would roll away
Ending pain and suffering
Bring the rain
or bring the spring
Don’t cry for me, dear
I’m alive, and I’m right here!
I missed you so damn much then
With no garden to tend
