Maybe The Rain - Dave Dobbyn
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
>From "Lament For The Numb".
Thanks to Jon-Paul Hansen (hansenjp@whio.lincoln.ac.nz) for checking the
lyrics.
INTRO:
VERSE 1:
Well this is horror show time in the heart of the Pacific
The French and the cavalry are dealing deadly wares
And you can stand back in anger or totally despair
Or you can raise your voices up, maybe move some air
CHORUS:
Maybe the rain will wash your tears away
Into the stream with autumn leaves
That some other spring may grow
Sometime some other spring may grow
Maybe the rain will wash your poison hands
Into the open belly of the ocean wide
That some other child may grow
Sometime some other child may grow
VERSE 2:
There is no getting out of this - the damage is horrific
And while they're tattooing chromosomes
from Bikini to the Marshall Islands
They make your front yard a urinal, during R&R
Well this is some kind of suicide, beyond the mere bizzare
CHORUS (repeat last line)
ENDING:
Maybe the rain, maybe the rain, maybe the rain
