Have I been to you a stranger?
Have I done you something unkind?
You bring me ruin when I ask for water
Trouble when I ask for rain
And all I wanted from you was no weather
And no dark clouds since I was young
All I needed was slow peaceful rivers
All I felt was poison on my tongue
Now you're after my cold blooded brothers
Did your father raise you with stones
Did your mother raise you what Judas or Jesus
Is it cold out there where you are from
And all I wanted from you was no weather
And no dark clouds since I was young
All I needed was slow peaceful rivers
All I felt was poison on my tongue
And someday I will reach me that valley
And someday it will not hurt no more
I will lie down in them still waters
But tonight it is too cold to run
And all I wanted from you was no weather
And no dark clouds since I was young
All I needed was slow peaceful rivers
All I felt was poison on my tongue
And all I wanted from you was no weather
And no dark clouds since I was young
All I needed was slow peaceful rivers
All I felt was poison on my tongue (on my tongue)
