Locust Years

歌詞

He built his life with his hands Put all he had into the land They came from nowhere on a cold dark wind The harvest disappeared But he survived the locust years It hurt to hear her baby cry Worked two jobs to get by Convinced herself she never needed a man Holding back the tears She survived the locust years When I lay next to you in your arms I know the world can do us no harm And like the thorns protect the rose I am safe with you I know a place inside a dream Where rivers run through fields of green A quiet valley that never lives in fear I will meet you there If we survive the locust years If we survive the locust years
