I turn my face to the waterline I turn my face far away This I realize is not the way Where the dark lies, push it way Hard by design Hard times and just a drop of rain So let the rain come on Behind, behind runs the sun I put my hand on the red dirt land I work the land where my father tread He said "don't be afraid when the snake is at hand The serpent is kind, compared to man" Hard by design Hard times, just a drop of rain So let the rain come on Behind, behind runs the sun The littlest light is the break of day The littlelest lamp finds a way All of our friends across the land Alive in the light and I called her there Hard by design Hard times, just a drop of rain So let the rain come on Outside, outside comes the sun Hard by design Hard times and just a drop of rain So let the rain come on Outside, outside runs the sun
