I heard thunder
And then I saw you.
Well, a flash of you,
Then dark.
You were sleeping,
But I doubt you were dreaming.
You didn't stir when I pulled the covers up.
Have you grown accustomed to these heavy sounds,
That they don't crack your skin and rattle your bones?
The back, the back, the back of your neck,
A trick, a trick, a trickle of sweat,
I'm lying in bed with a mess in my head
As big as the storm outside
As big as the storm outside
As big as the storm outside.
You said the thought had crossed your mind,
But you still loved me,
Didn't I know that?
Didn't I know that?
Well, I don't know that
And now you're sleeping
And I hear thunder
Shaking down the door.
For god's sake wake up,
These are heavy sounds,
They should crack your skin and rattle your bones.
But you're still sleeping
And now you'll never know.
