No Sign Of Rain by The Gone Jackals Lyrics

Autumn s come
And the leaves are lookin brown and dry
Sun swings low
A fruit resists the thirsty ground
Uselessly
I try to coax a cloud or two
Searchin the skies
Knowin there ain t nothing left to do

Summer s turned to gold
My garden s tired and old
The dust swirls round my bowl -
And still, no sign of rain

Faithfully
I ve tended to my patch of land
Year by year
I ve scratched to keep my humble clan

Now and then
Some thunderheads come out of the blue
Trouble is
They ve always been too far and few
Summer s turned to fall
The air is thick and cold
I feel it in my bones -
But still, no sign of rain

Silence shades my lonely claim -
Though all is gold
There is no rain
Still, I hear my singin bones

And I believe
Rain will fall
