Waiting for the Rain

Waiting For the Rain (J.Huff/M.Beckman/M.Landquist)

1 She picks her flowers in the garden an
dpaints her toenails candy red
After five she pours herself a glass of wine
as she´s thinking, so this is it.
California makes her lonely
talking to the friends’ back home,
but she knows it´s just a passing cloud of gray
she’s right here were she belongs

chours
It´s alright, it´s alright It´s OK, it´s OK
She´s a flower waiting for the rain

2 She runs the canyon in the morning
and smells the dusty yellow sand
Brings home a coffee from the country store
before she turns left on Wonderland
Touching the skyline in the evening
with a humble healing hand
And reflections from the headlights of the cars
among the fallen angels
and shooting stars

Chorus
It´s all right, it´s ok
She´s a flower waiting for the rain
and in time,
winds will change,
She´s a flower waiting for the rain

3.
She prays for silence in the nighttime
a perfect place to be alone
She´s looking up at the sky
and wishing for the rain to come down

Bridge
and she´s waiting for the rain, looking for a sign,
walking on the slippery memories made of ice
being a survivor for a day
and she´s looking for a way out, letting go
leaving all the random thoughts
cause there ain´t no point in crying anyway

She´s waiting for the rain to just come down to just calm down
