WESTLIFE ☆ Last Mile of the Way

Sun beats down on this thirsting land

Burning my will away

It’s many a mile from the eastern shore

And the hope I felt that day

We crossed the sea from the old country

To the promised land we came

Then we headed west on a thankless quest

To the place we staked our claim



Now the eagle that’s circling overhead, he

knows my name

‘Cause the only thing plentiful here is the

dust on the plain

Until God brings the rain



Wasn’t always this way, back in the day

All life sprang from this ground

But like a slow-burning curse every year’s

gotten worse

So someday it must turn around



As the wagons are rolling on out they call

me insane

But I’m not gonna let this land break me,

I’ll be staying

Until God brings the rain



God help me

Don’t you forsake me this way

Am I nothing to you?

How much suffering

must I stand in your name?

I’m only asking for rain



The sun sits high in a cruel blue sky

Mocking me every day

Last night I cried when a storm passed by

About fifteen miles away

In a dream I saw the coast once more

And I walked into the sea

I’d have been happy to die as that moment

passed by

But I woke to this misery



And the way things are going

I don’t know how much more I can take

I’m no kind of quitter but how long can any

man wait

How long must I wait

Until God brings the rain?
