The art gallery was deserted as I wandered the rooms,
Contemplating quietly alone and peacefulness was mine;
Stopping at a painting of a lone woman, I gazed at her face,

Climbed up from the slope that Id slid
Freed from the hole that Id dug since a kid
And the shame of all the things that I did

Sitting here playing these empty notes

Strumming out a sad melody as the time passes by

The loneliness is building by the minute, by the hour

Waiting for the time when she’s back by my side

Storm clouds gathering
Gusting wind on the prairie
Mother Earth awaits the touch
Unbearable heat
Rejuvenating down pour
Blending earth, wind, fire and rain!
