A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall - Hanne Boel

Oh, where have you been

My blue-eyed son?

And where have you been

My darling young one?

I’ve stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountains

I’ve walked and I crawled on six crooked highways

I’ve stepped in the middle of seven sad forests

I’ve been out in front of a dozen dead oceans

And it’s a hard, it’s a hard

It’s a hard, it’s a hard

It’s a hard rain’s a-gonna fall

Oh, what did you see

My blue-eyed son?

And what did you see

My darling young one?

I saw a newborn baby with wild wolves all around it

I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it

I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken

I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children

And it’s a hard, it’s a hard

It’s a hard, and it’s a hard

It’s a hard rain’s a-gonna fall

And it’s a hard, it’s a hard

It’s a hard, it’s a hard

It’s a hard rain’s a-gonna fall

And what’ll you do now

My blue-eyed son?

And what’ll you do now

My darling young one?

I’m a-goin' back out 'fore the rain starts a-fallin'

I’ll walk to the depths of the deepest dark forest

Where hunger is ugly, where the souls are forgotten

Where black is the color, where none is the number

And I’ll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin'

But I’ll know my song well before I start singing

And it’s a hard, it’s a hard

It’s a hard, and it’s a hard

It’s a hard rain’s a-gonna fall

And it’s a hard, it’s a hard

It’s a hard, and it’s a hard

It’s a hard rain’s a-gonna fall

End
