WHEN THE RAINS COME

by ANN MORTIFEE

 When the rains come
And water the earth with a sweet song
When the rains come
The dust in my heart......it will be gone
When the rains come
And for a moment the earth turns green

Then we will dream again
Of how life can be again
Simple and free again
With plenty for all

When the rains come
To the waiting embrace of the Mother
When the rains come
With the tender caress of the lover
When the rains come
We will open our hearts to the wind

Then we will dream again......

When the rains come
And new life takes bloom from the parched sand
When the rains come
We will rise free at last from the wasteland
When the rains come
We will drink to the sweet grass of spring

Then we will dream again.....

When the rains come
And the riverbank swells overflowing
When the rains come
We will gather the seeds we've been sowing
When the rains come
We will lift our eyes to the hills

Then we will dream again....
