Lyrics
Verse 1
Dry days,
Windy nights
A fire rages in these hills
Like a fear we cannot fight
A rising tide
Is at our shore
Singing songs of last chance lost
But do we listen anymore?
Chorus 1
But there are high clouds on the horizon
So I feel a chance for rain
I will keep on hopin
On this dry plain
I was a child of the mountains
But here I am at the sea
Most days I don't seek it out
But at night it covers me
Verse 2
Tell me how
It got this way
In this land of hand to mouth
We're barely livin' day to day
Where's our dream
Of something more
Did we leave it on the corner
All alone to to stop a war
Chorus 2
But there are high clouds on the horizon
So I feel a chance for rain
I will keep on hopin
On this dry plain
I was a child of the mountains
But here I am at the sea
Most days I don't seek it out
But at night it covers me
Bridge
I will keep on hopin'
Somehow I keep believing
It's like a dare to keep on dreaming
That we'll make it through
But when that door is open
The truth that was unspoken
Will rise on wings unbroken
Singing to you
Chorus 3
But there are high clouds on the horizon
So I feel a chance for rain
I will keep on hopin
On this dry plain
I was a child of the mountains
But here I am at the sea
Most days I don't seek it out
But at night it covers me
