After The Storm
So many heartaches & a fallen star was missing on the way ; You thought you could own me, ; with just the right tune and a pretty thing to say ; Pushing me on and on, covered with sweat, the roads keep playing ; I couldn’t let go of you, and yet, I was saying: ; Sorry I hurt you, but sometimes you need ; to settle for the better hand and I ; had to unease you, don’t take it too hard, I had to be looking ; And there’s a wave that’s calling, playing me hard and loud ; Tossing me about, my heart keeps cracking, it keeps on breaking apart ; I see the rainbow, knocking at my window ; standing in the way of the dark ; playing hard to get with my heart ; Walking in miracles ; The arrows you poisoned were constantly missing my heart ; My River was flowing ; And yesterdays’ grace was heavily hid in the dark ; A barefoot girl is walking ; Soaking wet dress, mud painted face, and a trace ; of long love-drunk nights ; Holding wounded visions & withered flowers in her hand ; After the dark storm comes the shattering calm ; Crispy bright light shines on ; it only cuts deeper in the sad eyes looking for home ; Everyone wears the skin that one bears, or else, trying to get by ; Cold bottled water, struggling accents and palaces cutting the sky;
