Rain - Berman

rain like, its been too long

like its always been away

rain like, like a new cloud

bleeding night into grey

bring all or nothing

short of 40 nights and days

or show me a mile away

and rain til you cant remember earth

til my feet cant feel the dirt

and my eyes see a mile away

til my feet can feel the sand

and i close my selfish hands

and pray that you wash it away

wash it away

brake once and i spin twice

gripping my last grain of sand

mixed with one tear, and with two drops

of sweat on which i stand

flashlights like a sunbeams

take me off this soiled land

and show me a mile away
