storms - nathan asher and the infantry lyrics

Loading...

[verse one]
something is crying in a cradle
through an open window a change in the channels
back behind the building, the brook babbles
the shutters rattle women light candles
i probably shouldn’t be here

a writer gets paid to put down in ink
pretend he believes all the thoughts that he thinks
while the sweat from his brow washes into the sink
and down, into the valley of tears

[chorus]
storms, lights on the road
yeah, you’re traveling fast, so you travel alone
storms, lights on the road
go with the grace of god
bring everything that you own

[verse two]
what happened to the face in my wallet?
when i went traveling, why didn’t it follow?
now the cheeks are hollow i turn on the pillow
the maid looks at me and says, “señor, the ending is near.”

the notebooks are filled with figures and signs
to ease up the day, to soften the time
they spill out like wine, and on down the line
into the valley of tears

[chorus]
storms, lights on the road
yeah, you’re traveling fast, so you travel alone
storms, lights on the road
go with the grace of god
bring everything that you own

[verse threev]
now the valley is covered in shadows
all the thoughts i used to think mattered like
soldiers scattered on a field after battle
i’m standing here, i’m waiting for the mist to clear

i’ll empty my pockets, quill tips and books
sit on the bridge with my feet in the brook
look out past the edge, one long look
into the valley of tears

[chorus]
storms, lights on the road
yeah, you’re traveling fast, so you travel alone
storms, lights on the road
go with the grace of god
bring everything that you own
storms
through rain, storms

[outro]
its a night shadows, clouds scatter
through the heat, and the rain, oh
storms, storms, oh, oh
