Kalahari Rain
Well, I know it’s hard to understand
The silly things they’d planned
And their witty repartee
Doesn’t mean a thing to you and me
Like that Kalahari Rain, falling in my brain
If my words were like flowers, dried in the sun
It could make them grow strong again
You know I’d shunned hope
And I’d lost my will to live
I had nothing left to give
But when my heart was screaming No!
I could feel that river start to flow
Chorus
You’d better save those tears
‘cause they won’t buy you back the years
That you threw away
And I know that you won’t hide
Or compromise your sacred pride
That’s a game that you won’t play
Chorus
Seek inspiration, because it’s all a state of mind
A reflection of the divine
And what I really mean to say
Is you’ve got life, don’t throw it all away
‘Cause here it comes!
Chorus
And I can’t stand up but I won’t sit down
I can climb so high I’ll never come down
In the midst of the inferno and the words so profane
I said, Oh! Kalahari Rain!
