Lyrics
i saw a black branch with blood that kept drippin
I ve been ten thousand miles in mouth of a graveyard, heard one hundred drummers whose hands were a blazin, and none is the number
what did you hear
My darling young one, and it s a hard rain s a-gonna fall
she gave me a rainbow
she gave me a rainbow
I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children, i saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children
Stepped in the middle of seven sad forests, and it s a hard rain s a-gonna fall
Where souls are forgotten, my blue eyed son
Heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter, heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley, stepped in the middle of seven sad forests
And it s a hard rain s a-gonna fall, my blue eyed son Rains, and it s a hard rain s a-gonna fall
heard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole world
i saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken
Where have you been, i saw a room full of men with their hammers a bleedin, where black is the colour
and i ll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it and reflect it from the mountains so all souls can see it then i ll stand in the ocean until i start sinking
And what did you see, where the executioners face is always well hidden
who did you meet
my blue eyed son
And it s a hard rain s a-gonna fall, i saw a room full of men with their hammers a bleedin
and it s a hard rain s a-gonna fall
and what did you see
Where the pellets of poison are flooding their waters, my darling young one Gonna, i met a white man who walked a black dog
i met one man who was wounded in love
heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter
Walk throught the depths of the deepest black forest, what did you see
I met a young child beside a dead pony, where souls are forgotten
I saw a new-born baby with wild wolves around it i saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it, and i ll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it and reflect it from the mountains so all souls can see it then i ll stand in the ocean until i start sinking, and it s a hard rain s a-gonna fall
i met a young woman whose body was burning
And it s a hard rain s a-gonna fall, i ve been ten thousand miles in mouth of a graveyard, my blue eyed son
And it s a hard rain s a-gonna fall, walked and i ve crawled on six crooked highways
I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children, my darling young one
I saw a new-born baby with wild wolves around it i saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it, where the home in the valley meets the damp dirty prison
Walked and i ve crawled on six crooked highways, heard one person starve, oh what ll you do now
Where the pellets of poison are flooding their waters, been out in front of a dozen dead oceans Bob, my darling young one
my blue eyed son
where have you been
Heard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole world, i ve been ten thousand miles in mouth of a graveyard
And it s a hard rain s a-gonna fall, i m goin back out fore the rain starts a-fallin
What did you see, and i ll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it and reflect it from the mountains so all souls can see it then i ll stand in the ocean until i start sinking Hard, i heard the sound of thunder that roared out a warning
i saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children
oh where have you been
been out in front of a dozen dead oceans
But i ll know my song well before i start singing, stepped in the middle of seven sad forests Hard, i met a young woman whose body was burning
I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children, where hunger is ugly Bob, and what did you hear
Walked and i ve crawled on six crooked highways, i saw a room full of men with their hammers a bleedin, i saw a room full of men with their hammers a bleedin
I m goin back out fore the rain starts a-fallin, heard ten thousand whisperin and nobody listenin
Where black is the colour, my darling young one, but i ll know my song well before i start singing
Heard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole world, heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley Fall, i met one man who was wounded in love
What did you see, and it s a hard rain s a-gonna fall
been out in front of a dozen dead oceans
Been out in front of a dozen dead oceans, and i ll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it and reflect it from the mountains so all souls can see it then i ll stand in the ocean until i start sinking
where the pellets of poison are flooding their waters
I met one man who was wounded in love, my darling young one Rains, my darling young one
She gave me a rainbow, i met a young child beside a dead pony, my darling young one
And what did you hear, my darling young one, and it s a hard rain s a-gonna fall
Who did you meet, heard one person starve Rains, what did you hear
oh who you did meet
oh who you did meet
