Richard Garvey

Lyrics

Mother nature knows how to fight.
Mother nature knows how to win.
Like a bird in flight
Through a strong headwind
Her victory is sweet
By design
Against the concrete

Father time knows when it's right.
Father time knows when it's wrong
Like a salmon will climb
Up the stream when it's time
The cycle does complete
A rising tide
Against the concrete

Oh my friends we've lost
More than we could gain
A landslide we cleared the trees
A desert where we farmed the land
The earth will bring new life
Pushing, cracking
Against the concrete

As sure as the sun does shine
Nature will heal in time
Only time will tell
If we do well
Til then you can find me
Loving wild
Against the concrete
