China White III

by Dave Matthews Band

Our land is terribly dry
and we see no crop
without the rain drops
and only the weeds will survive
and keep our seeds from thriving
will we ever see the spring
I've got my eye on you
and these eyes have a plan
(these eyes have a plan)
I've got my eyes on you
and they wink and you stay
now won't you please grow for me
I swore i'd never leave your side
i'm exhausted
I need a rest
and even when I close my eyes
all these tears continue
and they will find their way
I've got my eye on you
and these eyes have a plan
(these eyes have a plan)
I've got my eyes on you
and they wink and you stay
now won't you please grow for me
I thought I'd never see the day
when the clouds would over hang
in pain and suffering
bring the rain
bring the spring?
and don't cry for me dear
I'm alive and right here
I missed you so damn much then
with no garden to tend
