Buckman Page - River and Rain lyrics

rate me

Tomorrow brings the things that we are searching for

As we throw away possessions we will use no more

Outside the sun will rise to conquer the ages

Earth's tragic saga told in modest pages

Problems grow, flooded rivers flow

Toward a sunken town

Homes submerged, cries unheard

New hope cannot be found

And if we turn our backs to this

We may endure some future pain

Right now we must desist

So that our home can still remain

The greatest gift of all these gifts

And we can go dancing in the river and the rain

The land is dry, the water level is much too high

I'm burnin' up from this heat lamp in the sky

We can't pretend like this is not going on

We've ignored this problem for much too long

It's time to act, let's reduce our waste

Let's conserve some energy with helpful haste

Who knows what tomorrow may bring

A earthly change in everything

There are so many things that we can do

We've paved the way and now the rest can join us too
