Rain forest talking to the dragon-mountain-moon Stars infest the heavens in the southern skies Otter swim against the river, whisper in the water The stars are dead and what you see are shining lies Body-smoke tie the night in a misty web of blue Simple things are all we have left to trust An apple, a horse, some milk and a little bread Will help time stop slipping through our fingers M-oh-hum-oh, M-oh-hum-oh M-oh-hum-oh, M-oh-hum-oh M-oh-hum-oh, M-oh-hum-oh M-oh-hum-oh, M-oh-hum-oh What you got left to trust? (M-oh-hum) Stones in the dust! (M-oh-hum) A simple thing you got left to trust (M-oh-hum) Someone in your heart (M-oh-hum) Crickets learn the final chorus of their night song Standing at your door 'cause I have nowhere else to go Tried to fill the empty spaces with my songs Came here 'cause I know you sometimes also feel this way I brought an apple and a horse, some milk and a little bread These simple things are all we have left to trust I hope I will not find you smiling in a dream I've come too far to face again what I have passed M-oh-hum-oh, M-oh-hum-oh M-oh-hum-oh, M-oh-hum-oh M-oh-hum-oh, M-oh-hum-oh M-oh-hum-oh, M-oh-hum-oh M-oh-hum-oh, M-oh-hum-oh M-oh-hum-oh, M-oh-hum-oh M-oh-hum-oh, M-oh-hum-oh M-oh-hum-oh, M-oh-hum-oh What you got left to trust? (M-oh-hum) Stones in the dust! (M-oh-hum) A simple thing you got left to trust (M-oh-hum) Someone in your heart, singing (M-oh-hum) M-oh-hum-oh, M-oh-hum-oh M-oh-hum-oh, M-oh-hum-oh M-oh-hum-oh, M-oh-hum-oh M-oh-hum-oh, M-oh-hum-oh M-oh-hum-oh, M-oh-hum-oh M-oh-hum-oh, M-oh-hum-oh M-oh-hum-oh, M-oh-hum-oh M-oh-hum-oh, M-oh-hum-oh What you got left to trust? (M-oh-hum) Stones in the dust! (M-oh-hum) A simple thing you got left to trust (M-oh-hum) Someone in your heart, singing (M-oh-hum) What you got left to trust? (M-oh-hum) Stones in the dust! (M-oh-hum) A simple thing you got left to trust (M-oh-hum) Someone in your heart (M-oh-hum)
