Desperation Rain Dance
If you stand next to the stranger
With his back up against the wall
You can feel his nerve ends breaking
As he tries to make his call
To a lady who has left him
And is trying to get back home
One thin dime is all he has while searching for a phone
Well hello how are you doing
I?m okay last I heard
Don?t know what I?m doing yet honey
But things sure seem absurd
Those changes every single day
Turn my mind around
One day yes I?m leaving and the next I?m back in time
Chorus
I need a desperation rain dance for the forest of my mind
Maybe tomorrow the rain will come and ease up on the vine
Shadows singing, voices ringing, no-one?s left inside
And the water is the only thing that will get me through the night
And the water is the only thing that will get me through the night
I just thought I?d let you know
That I know I just don?t know
If I should stay or go
Or maybe I?ll dance through a window
For I thought I read the truth
On the wall of the john in a bar and it says
Whatever?s coming back to me must be coming from very far
Chorus
I need a desperation rain dance for the forest of my mind
Maybe tomorrow the rain will come and ease up on my mind
Shadows singing, voices ringing, no-one?s left inside
And the water is the only thing that will get me through the night
And the water is the only thing that will get me through the night
