lyrics
She's on the road again
only this time, she's alone
The desert stretching out
heading far away from home
Where had all the flowers gone?
In life it seemed they withered away
They came in rainy times
Now the arid field remained
Here and then, they came to her in dreams
Empty thoughts boiled up under sunbeams
She took it step by step
Her belongings on her back
But things had weighed her down
that were never in that pack
Her life was full of miracles
Who could foresee the gifts that she gained?
She had to prove herself
Had to earn the claim to fame
Soon enough, they came to her in dreams
Wispy thoughts amounting to nothing
The temperature had got to her, it seemed
Like a plant without its moisture would recede
Now she knew where all the flowers went
A minor cease was all it had been
Their life resumed once more
When the rain would come right in
and as the water fell
she looked up and gave a smile
the way she used to do
when she was a little child
only this time, she's alone
The desert stretching out
heading far away from home
Where had all the flowers gone?
In life it seemed they withered away
They came in rainy times
Now the arid field remained
Here and then, they came to her in dreams
Empty thoughts boiled up under sunbeams
She took it step by step
Her belongings on her back
But things had weighed her down
that were never in that pack
Her life was full of miracles
Who could foresee the gifts that she gained?
She had to prove herself
Had to earn the claim to fame
Soon enough, they came to her in dreams
Wispy thoughts amounting to nothing
The temperature had got to her, it seemed
Like a plant without its moisture would recede
Now she knew where all the flowers went
A minor cease was all it had been
Their life resumed once more
When the rain would come right in
and as the water fell
she looked up and gave a smile
the way she used to do
when she was a little child
