lyrics

It's been years since there's been enough water to
keep the loose dirt down,
so the wind she picks up the soil and
she throws it around, throws us all down

With cracked earth beneath our fest
and bellies full of dust
we sing please oh please
send the rain to us, send the rain to us

i saw living water pouring from
that hole in his side
when i drank i knew that i would thirst no more
and i became alive for the first time

I'm waiting to hear the pitter patter of water on my window...

when i hear the pitter patter of water on my window, I know the rain
will come and wash it all away, and we will be healed.
