verse one

there’s a man in a shop, sells watermelons with his wife
he came here for a better life
he thinks, ‘here’s where i’ll die’

found a graveyard behind some willows and waterfalls
he tells his kids who’ve all grown tall
‘here’s where i’d like to lie’
‘this bed of grass is mine’

chorus

he lived his life in lunar years
waiting for the sun to rise
walked the streets of a windy city
he can see their fear
they don’t want him here

verse 2

his hair grew past his shoulders
his wife said it makes him look older
one day he went to get it cut
but they turned him away
he often watched his children play
in the garden they’d made of this place
wondering how he’d have to tell them
the cruelty they’d face here
half a world away

chorus

he lived his life in lunar years
waiting for the sun to rise
walked the streets of a windy city
he can almost hear them say
they don’t want him here

bridge

all it takes is a man with hate
and another who gives him a gun
he burst the doors of the family store
and took the man’s life away
the man with hate then went and ate
with ministers from down the lane
they clap for him, congratulate him
for taking the man’s life away
now no one remembers his name
chorus

but he lived his life in lunar years
waiting for the sun to rise
walked the streets of a windy city
he turned out to be right
this was where he died
