Songtext von Praying For Rain

The widow’s heart is like a broke-down car In the middle of a desert storm She’ll pray for rain until it comes some day And washes out valley floor She’ll say, “the sea is no place for me, There’s nowhere I can rest” She’ll say “god, my god, give me back dry land, I can’t take much more of this” Oh, you made your choice my daughter Oh trust me, you can swim a little farther Daughter of the shadow, has your truth been revealed? In the darkness you are nothing, in the light you are real All you see before you is yours to call home As long as you don’t look for answers you don’t need to know Oh, you know my voice my father Oh what’s the point of going any farther? Oh, do I have a choice my father? Oh, what’s the point of going any farther? As the waters rise up, I will look to the sky And say, “lord, where are you?” You’ll say, “I was there the whole time my son You just never asked me what you should do”
