Emily's Rain

In the shadows that she paints
 Lie the stories she can't tell
 But the trees she lights on fire
 And the colors cast a spell
 All the waiting it's been hard
 She picks at the food on her plate
 There's so much that he could give
 There's so much that he could take
 All her life she's looked up to the clouds
 For the rain to fall, break up this fallow ground
 One day soon she will be loved
 It's written deep within her fate
 And every generation gone
 Will gather round to celebrate
 From mouth to mouth will come the words
 Year to year and face to face
 From the hands down in the hurt
 And in her intensive grace
 She will raise the windows high
 Let the light come streaming in
 And though the wind will burn her eyes
 She will learn to breathe again
 All her life she's looked up to the clouds
 For the rain to fall, break up this fallow ground
 For the rain to fall, break up this fallow ground
 Na, na, na, na
 Na, na, na, na
 Na, na, na, na
 Na, na, na, na
