Sleep deprived
Ideas thrive
That soul it starved
It craves
            Love

A lost wonderer
Searching in the plains
For whatever sustainance he can find
Nourishment to calm his brain

     Rain it falls
     washed away sand
     Rain - it heals
     Feeds the deprived vagabond

The seeker he falls
He lays on his knees
And slowly he stops
Now the thinker dreams

     Rain it falls
     washed away sand
     Rain - it heals
     Feeds the deprived vagabond

Arms reach out
Like flowers in the spring
For sleep is nigh
And the restless sleep

     Rain it falls
     washed away sand
     Rain - it heals
     Feeds the deprived vagabond

Encased in warmth
This comfort found
Bathe in its light
Until come the next cloud

     Rain it falls
     washed away sand
     Rain - it heals
     Feeds the deprived vagabond
