Lyrics

Earth needs rain and I?m the same
There?s a drought, there?s a drought
Going on around here
I?m a rock, I?m stoned, water runs over me
Leaving me high, leaving me dry,
Seeking something.

And you could give me what I need
For a second or three
In a minute or two

I, I do what I choose to do,
I got nothing to lose
Cause I?m so damn thirsty

Blood can stain and I?m the same
But my heart isn?t red
It is blue
(Are you, yeah?)
A rock hard stone, letting nothing in
But beware, my baby blue
Because it might lead me to you

And you could give me what I need
For a second or three
It?ll take you a minute or two

And I do what I choose to do,
Do what I choose to do
Cause I?m so damn thirsty

Dreams of the Guadalupe River
I stood by its side and watched it flow
Seems that a drought could last forever
Can?t catch the rain when it falls,
When it falls?

So wet me.
Feel me.
Touch me.
Heal me.
Save me.
Bathe me.

But don?t get too close to me.

And you could give me what I need
For a second or three
It?ll take you a minute or two

And I do what I choose to do,
Got nothing to lose
When you?re so damn thirsty

Earth needs rain and I?m the same
There?s a drought, there?s a drought
Going on around here.
