lyrics

The thunder slapped the sky so hard
Hesitated it was caught off guard
And cried upon the steps outside my house
As a force of nature love reveals
Itself to unwitting minds and ears
With print so small
You never stop to read

Well I used to think that ghosts could fly
Like letters folded mailed through time
To travel to some place to speak your name
Well I held that picture torn in half
The part that’s missing is where you laughed
At how I thought your smile was close to God

I dreamed you once while I was still awake
The bed remembers the shape you made
And the morning sun
Still asks me where you’ve gone
I miss the things we never planned
I wish we could I know we can’t
But wishes are for things that you can’t buy

The rain and I both share this song
But rain and lovers both move on
And once again you’re left with open sky
