"Drought" lyrics
"Drought"
I never been to Cincinnati
Well maybe I'll take some time to make that ride on the road to the west coast
Nor have I been to Salt Lake City
But I'm on my way to San Jose and don't know when I'm coming home
I've been looking for the well
And I'm looking for the water
But in this city now
It's all dust and mortar
I've been praying for the rainfall
Hoping for a small cloud
But this far from you, girl
I should expect a drought
I've never been this long without you
Over twenty-five hundred miles and forty hours with the fuel gauge in the red
You know I'm dying to be somebody
I wish you were here with me in the shotgun seat as we play these old cassettes
I've been looking for the river
As I'm headed to the ocean
But in this city now
The dry land is broken
I've been searching for the answers
As I'm running from my doubts
But with the glass half empty
I should expect a drought
Oh-oh-oh, it's gonna be a long dry summer
And you are my water
Oh-oh-oh, it's gonna be a long dry summer
And you are my water
I never been to Manhattan
Well only one wintertime, on the low eastside, but I had no time to stop
We're gonna go to New York City
I can't wait 'til I get home, you pack your clothes, and we'll walk the promenade
I've been looking for the well
And I'm looking for the water
But in this city now
It's all dust and mortar
I've been praying for the rainfall
Hoping for a small cloud
I'm coming back to you, girl
And we'll end this drought
Oh-oh-oh, it's gonna be a long dry summer
And you are my water
Oh-oh-oh, it's gonna be a long dry summer
And you are my water
It's gonna be a long, long, long
A long dry summer
Mmmmm, you are my water

Tow'rs - "Alright" If I'm not alright
Will we be alright?
I don't wanna be right
I just want you
I don't pretend to know the thoughts in your head
It's easy when your eyes are always speaking
Why don't we stay in each...
Mipso - "Born At The Right Time" Down among the reeds and rushes
A baby boy was found
His eyes as clear as centuries
His silky hair was brown
Never been lonely, never been lied to
Never had to scuffle in fear, nothing denied to...
Tall Heights - "Controlled Burn" Burn
Left me out
A hound ungroomed
With one nigh moon
I was consumed
I howled to it
Oh, I was loud
In drinking rooms
And dim saloons
When I found you
I found you wounded
But you wore your heart...
Horse Feathers - "Without Applause" Work was on the way
And I'd rather be no one, work in vain
All the suits are formally
And as for me, I'll soon take that front seat
And time she bears a cross
In an ocean teaming with froth
I'm on...
Donovan Woods - "Drove Through Town" I was waiting in the car, then a Ford got stolen
You didn't love me yet
You were squinting in the sun, looking at me from church steps
And all of the grass was still wet
Hold tight, you wanna know...
