lyrics

"Eye of the Storm"

You and me go together like fire and smoke. I need somebody who's not a bartender to laugh at my jokes. Things with you and me babe used to be so sporadic, and I cried the day you said you'd take the old lamps from the attic. ‘Cuz they've been there since your dad died. And I held you through a thousand tears that you cried. And I appreciate all you do for me, and I love you. I'm true to you ‘cuz you're true to me it's what we do.

I'll change the cat litter if you wash the clothes. We can get drunk all night long goodness knows. So let's drive through the night til we find ourselves somewhere warm. We can outrun the rain if we stay in the eye of the storm.

Sometimes I think, that I don't deserve you. Sometimes we say these things that are untrue. And our anger spurts up out of nowhere, but I don't want to be alone baby ‘cuz life is something to share. And I hope that you can quit your job, and make more art. Someday we won't have to cry when we listen to “The Prickers Great Big Hearts.” And I'll be with you every step of the way, and so will your old man. The world's greatest inventions and discoveries weren't always planned.

I'll do the dishes if you come out to my shows. We can fight over chores all night long until we're blue in the nose. So let's drive through the night til we find ourselves somewhere warm. We can outrun the rain if we stay in the eye of the storm.

I know I can be selfish and I know I can be mean. And I sure ain't rich baby I can't treat you just like a queen. But my aim is true and I won't tell you no lies. Love doesn't happen overnight sometimes you got to try. You know I don't like to talk about forever, cuz that's a long long time. But as long as you walk this Earth I hope you will be mine. I don't mind traveling down the road with few bumps along ride. Right now I'm happy singing this song with you, sitting right here by my side.

I'll find a dog sitter if you make up a fresh pot of joe. We can drink coffee all night long until our hearts explode. So let's drive through the night til we find ourselves somewhere warm. We can outrun the rain if we stay in the eye of the storm. We can outrun the rain if we stay in the eye of the storm. We can outrun the rain if we stay in the eye of the storm.
