    Lyrics

    WEATHER GETS WARM

    Looked out this morning
    the sky was falling down
    the ice was forming in mid-air
    crashing like bones
    breaking when they meet with
    unforgiving ground

    I tried to turn the heat up
    but the pilot would not light
    I burnt out every match we had
    wishing the wind
    could invade some other home for just one
    unsuspecting night

    Will there be an end to this storm?
    How long ‘till the weather gets warm?
    Holding on for that breaking sun
    Tell me how long ‘till the weather gets warm?

    It’s been twenty days and thirty nights
    since one of us got paid
    the neighbor brought a bag of food
    straining to stretch
    a remedy of hope across his
    un-denying face

    Will there be an end to this storm?
    How long ‘till the weather gets warm?
    Holding on for that breaking sun
    Tell me how long ‘till the weather gets warm?

    We shut the door behind him
    and we watched him walk away
    the bag of food dropped from my hands
    shaking and cold
    down to my toes another
    unrelenting day

    I wanna walk outside
    barefoot in my lemon thyme
    You put your hand over my eyes
    and say
    “Dream…
    Dream…
    Dream”

    So you wrapped me in that blanket
    Your mother had crocheted
    we fell together on the couch
    kissing like kids
    finding ourselves in an
    unauthorized embrace

    Will there be an end to this storm?
    How long ‘till the weather gets warm?
    Holding on for that breaking sun
    Tell me how long ‘till the weather gets warm?

    Will there be an end to this storm?
    How long ‘till the weather gets warm?
    Holding on for that breaking sun . . .

    Will there be an end to this storm?
    How long ‘till the weather gets warm
    Holding on for that breaking sun
    tell me how long ‘till the weather gets warm?

    Will there be an end to this storm?
    How long ‘till the weather gets warm
    Holding on for that breaking sun
    Tell me how long ‘till the weather gets warm?
