lyrics

Hear The Rising Wind

(Tent City...Kent State, 1977)


Hear the rising wind across the hill If it weren’t for him i’d be there still
But you can laugh and cry and sing your song There may be nobody near you
But if you laugh and cry and sing your song Somebody’s gonna hear you
All the paper houses in the wind Waitin’ for the hard rain to begin All the weary children in the rain Never meant to have this kinda pain
But you can laugh and cry and sing your song There may be nobody near you
But if you laugh and cry and sing your song Somebody’s gonna hear you
Are you there? Hold your candle to the night Let your lovin eyes drink in the light Hear the rising wind across the hill
If it weren’t for him i’d be there still...
But you can laugh and cry and sing your song There may be nobody near you
But if you laugh and cry and sing your song Somebody’s gonna hear you Somebody’s gonna hear you Somebody’s gonna hear you
