They'd bring you to your knees
Melodies clouded by the winds
Watchin' the rain come down
Just to disappear and let the sun shine
And I smiled, when I first heard you say hi
Then I saw you slipping by
Something just caught my eye
I looked her cowskull in the eye
when I was five years old
She watched over me all night
and it turned my blood cold
I made my mind up when I turned thirteen
And I smiled when I first heard you say hi
An d I saw you slipping by
Couldn't stop to ask you why
Looking for a patch of sun,
So hard to run on things without
All of my instruments say,
when the music's over, please burn
I don't know what or when
It's a hell of a day, not to die
Wipe the tears out of your eyes
Today's spitting bone in the mud
Will be tomorrow's laughing bud
There'll be sunlight left in the sky
When the clouds come down
and the rain drops in July
