[Verse 1]

Bouquet of flowers tied up with twine

Plucked for a vase, for days may shine

But petals wilt as tears are wept

And leaves that fall away are swept

[Chorus]

Somewhere across distant plains

Rise words that never were exchanged

Forgiving rain, oh won't you fall?

And let my lover hear my call

[Verse 2]

Laughing shadow upon my stride

While I do stumble, you seem to glide

And though I run I can’t escape

The sun insists you keep your pace

[Chorus]

Somewhere across distant plains

Rise words that never were exchanged

Forgiving rain, oh won't you fall?

Let my lover hear my call

[Verse 3]

I long to quench a hunger deep

But no desire have I to eat

A ghost-like muse I'm bound to chase

Seems satisfaction I cannot taste

[Chorus]

Somewhere across distant plains

Rise words that never were exchanged

Forgiving rain, oh won’t you fall?

Let my lover hear my call

Forgiving rain, oh won't you fall?

And let my lover hear my call
