Storm

I stayed in this place before the storm hit

And blew me home

I can't set my sight beyond the train line

Or the road

You knew then that I'd be gone when the morning

Light fell in your palm

I turned my face out towards the coastline

And the shore

Held my ears close so I could listen

To her moan

I knew you weren't there at all

But the memory kept me moving on

I stayed with my past as long as it took me

To let go

There's no sense in trying to protect me

From my ghosts

I'll fall out of love again if you let me

But how could I be sure?

There's nowhere to go tonight

There's nowhere to go, so I

I keep on lying down

Afraid that I'll be found out

I let all my thoughts come with me

When I go

Sprinkle them out when I feel like

Coming home

I saw you in there somewhere

But I can't be sure
