There has been a time
When the rains did fall.
I could see the clouds
As they started to form.

I have lived my life as a simple man.
Should my heart not make a sound.
I've even tried to please the other man
Storing riches for my own.

I have seen the fire.
I have felt the flames.
It seemed warm for a while,
Then it started to burn.

I have lived my life as a simple man.
Should my heart not make a sound.
I've even tried to please the other man
Storing riches for my own.
