lyrics

A dry summer day, waiting on the rain
To give life to the fields who can barely speak your name
Hey I know, I know, we all have our day
Drowning in the dirt and the dust, waiting on the rain

Where do we go when our river’s dried up
Do we dance, do hope, do we pray, or pack it in, pack it up
Honey I know, I know the rain’s gotta come
But I’ve got sand in my eyes and dust on my tongue

How long can we hold out, how long can we wait
How long can we hold out, how long can we wait

Forever and a day we’ve been in this drought
We’re thirsty and tired and weak, our oasis dried out
So we gotta dig deep, and we’ve gotta believe
There’s something better ‘round the corner waiting for you and me

But how long can we hold out, how long can we wait
How long can we hold out, how long can we wait
Tell me how long can we hold out, how long can we wait
How long can we suffer, how long do we stay

When our seeds have dried up
And we’re buried in sand
If we dig deep enough beneath the desert
Will we find the promised land

Maybe a rush of light, static brought to life
Would end this aching day, and begin a hopeful night
Unsettle the dirt and the dust in a glorious bloom of unrest
Then cascade a welcome monsoon with thunder shaking my chest
Thunder shaking my chest
Thunder shaking my chest
Thunder shaking my chest

about

Going To The Sun Minneapolis, Minnesota

Going To The Sun’s mix of earthy-acoustic-playful-electric-pop-rock rings with the earnest storytelling of Willie Nelson, the lush harmonies of “Pet Sounds”-era Beach Boys, and the spirited instrumentation of Modest Mouse and Arcade Fire, the result of small mountain-town upbringing and two decades of being immersed in the rich music culture of the Twin Cities. ... more
