Storm Clouds Lyrics by Willie P. Bennett

Hobo’s Taunt

0

Water was dodging rocks in the stream bed
The wind was rising up slow
Getting ready to bend the trees at the end of the road
Where the storm clouds were growing
We stood there and watched and waited for the rain
The dust swirling round people running in vain
And the thunder rolling in like a midnight train
I said the stars' eyes tonight won't be opening
Not while these storm clouds are growing

We were skin popping laughter
And feeding our freedom
Having the time of our lives
Getting ready to follow the ways that we'd been before
But the people we found could not make a sound
It seems that they'd been through that door
They said don't be surprised if it disappears 'fore your eyes
You know the way waves race the shore
Once they're there they're not anymore

It's not the sound of the rain that makes me feel lonely
Nor the gray skies that give me the blues
It's the weight of some miles and all the useless disguises
I've had to sit and watch people use
I've had to sit here and watch people use

My friends, we don't say much now
We just talk about things we have heard
Wishing for just a little more time
And wanting a whole lot more nerve
It's not that love is wrong
But when your feelings are gone
What's left makes you fester inside
And I know I've bin seen
Between my blues and greens
But my eyes camouflage what I've tried
Ya my eyes camouflage what I've tried

It's not the sound of the rain that makes me feel lonely
Nor the gray sky's that give me the blues
It's the weight of some miles and all the useless disguises
I've had to sit and watch people use
I've had to sit here and watch people use
It's not the sound of the rain that makes me feel lonely
Nor the gray sky's that give me the blues
It's the sound of some drunk dreams spit up on the sidewalk
And the distance that I feel from you
Ya the distance that I feel from you

Burning, ... Babe I'm burned
