lyrics
Come on, we sacrificed - when will the rain end? Come on, we sacrificed her - when will the rain end?
Oh, come on, come on - you’re not playing fair
Quit trying to wash the blood from your hands
Reach over the mountain
Reach up from the bay
Don’t you hear how we weep our songs of love
In the flood?
(excerpt from Ha Jin)
Come on, we pray, but our voices wash away
Come on, we pray, but our voices wash away
So come on, come on - oh, you’re not playing fair
Quit trying to wash the blood from your hands
So reach over the mountain Reach up from the bay
Don’t you hear how we weep our songs of love. . .
. . . . in the flood?
