lyrics

I'm stumbling in the breeze,
the vinyard's gone rotten
it smells like the sea
I look at the sea
red dust and weeds
And the flood nowhere to be seen ohhh

Ohhh and the clouds made of dust and sand
Out in the dry
land of California

Sky's blue again sun is red,
the mountains look like heaven
I am thirsty
for a drop or drip
A river where I can swim ohh

Ohhh and the clouds made of dust and sand
Out in the dry
land of California

I'm walking and I see
rainbows in the street I must be crazy
Did it rain today?
I must be dreaming
The ground is drying ohhh

Ohhh and the clouds made of dust and sand
Out in the dry
land of California

The barman shakes my shoulder
sayin’ you better wake up
Go rescue your land
until the storm comes
Until the land is fertile ohhh

Ohhh and the clouds made of dust and sand
Out in the dry
land of California

I'm cathartic from the thorns that drain time,
my veins juice the vines
I grab the air
for something to drink
I fall on my behind ohhh

Ohhh and the clouds made of dust and sand
Out in the dry
land of California
