Another one for the songwriting forum. SSG Y10W26 The assignment was to write about rain. We haven't had any, so that's my song. I don't know how to classify the genre. Calling it blues for now.

Story behind the song
Simple. It has been a dry summer.
Lyrics
verse:
The river has become a stream
Replenishment is just a dream.
All the grass is dry,
The weeds two inches high
And wildlife looking lean.
chorus:
Another day of dust.
No rain.
Every day's the same.
No rain.
verse:
The hills still show the traces
Of last year's raging blazes
Fear, dismay and agitation.
Houses burned to their foundations
And blackened barren spaces.
verse:
It's been months since we've had rain.
I think I need to get on a plane.
Go somewhere with humidity,
Rent a condo by the sea
Where I can see the clouds again.
verse:
Maybe showers will come soon.
Maybe we'll get an early monsoon.
Humid days with precipitation
Making the washes run.
Clouds hiding the sun.
