Raindrop

Early one morning a raindrop fell to my feet
Oh raindrop o raindrop what can you teach to me?
Theyr'e building up wars on the end of your streets my friends
They will feed it to fools
And like a fire it will burn to the end

My bones these bones
My only bones
And the war is all
The war is all they know

Well o raindrop o raindrop
Where do we go from here?
Raindrop oh raindrop when will we live without fear?
Theres a path by the river
Shes long but she leads to the sea
When you get there, sit down and listen
And wait for me

So I follow the path to the moonlight I reach the shore
And the toide she is turning and laps on the sea cabin floors
And I wait and i wait but the raindrop I cannot see
In the dark of the ocean perhaps my little raindrop is free?

My bones these bones
My only bones
And the war is all
The war is all they know

In the rise of the dawn a voice well she calls to me
Well come take off your clothes and jump to the sky with me
We will rise above the clouds and
Like snowflakes we will sing to the breeze
We kiss all the mountains
and lick all the roots of the trees

Early one morning a raindrop fell to my feet
Oh raindrop oh raindrop what can you teach to me
Well in the heart of all men
There is one little seed
That in the ocean there are drops
But in the drop the ocean is
Free

"Jono plays with a light hand with impulses that act like an energetic gesture, the results are half transparent as an impressionist brush stroke"
