MADONNA: Hearts in Drought 2

Eyes were scraping the sky for your beads of rain
To free the hearts that love has bound in chain
If eyes could talk, they would plead for your return
Before they see the earth starting to burn

Fervid plants bearing seeds of tomorrow
Who could guess they would be burried in sorrow?
Superimposed my succulent heart upon yours
I trusted to prolong the lives on this moor

What wind had brushed your flesh allured?
To where were your love and faith assured?
Afloated the sky, wouldn't you descend and touch
What left on this land that my hands could clutch?

Unconditional love was bursting aloud
But my voice was lost like distant cloud
Deceitful wind had left this place
Sipping away my youth in wistful grace

Crescendo of silence overwhelmed my breath
Languished in the soil, awaiting my death
I heard no footstep, no heartbeat, no sound
All in all, one more heart perished in the ground.
