Sand In the Wind
Sand in the wind off the desert,
Burning my face in the breeze,
Sand in the wind is a demon,
Scaring the leaves off the trees.
Sand in the wind knows you’re leaving,
Hammering my window-pane,
Sand in the wind without mercy,
How many weeks without rain?
Stuck in a South Oregon cabin,
Hiding my eyes in the sun,
Sand in the wind says it’s over,
‘Wonder which one of us won?
Sand in the wind blowing angry,
Hope you’re some place where it’s cool,
Sand in the wind dry and dirty,
Maybe I’ll go back to school.
