Creators of Rain
[Verse 1: Mick Harvey & Amanda Acevedo]
In the beginning, the land was stained
Parched by the sun, deserts and plains
Then the creators of the land created rain
I was that barren, wasted land
I was too weak to stand
Then the creators of rain created you
[Verse 2: Mick Harvey & Amanda Acevedo]
High on a mountain, growing bare
Land was plenty, trees were rare
Then the creators of the rain created air
I was that mountain growing bare
My life was empty, nothing there
Then the creators of air created you
[Interlude: Amanda Acevedo]
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
[Bridge: Mick Harvey with Amanda Acevedo]
There would be no land, no seas
No plants, no trees
No life or me
Without you
Without you
[Verse 3: Mick Harvey & Amanda Acevedo]
Life had forgotten the carrying on
Dreams that were lost to fade above
Then the creators of rain created love
I was that dream that life had made
To search in endless hope and fate
Then the creators of love created you
[Outro: Amanda Acevedo]
You, ooh
You, ooh, ooh, ooh
You, ooh-ooh, ooh
You, ooh, ooh, ooh
For me, ooh-ooh, ooh
For me
For me
For me
