The Storm - Sturgill Simpson

Please don’t think me a lazy man

Because I’ve been sitting around all day with the blues

I know how it looks but don’t misunderstand

It’s just that I can tell a storm’s about to brew

Cause there’s thunder inside my mind

There’s lightning behind these eyes

There’s a lull and the wind is dying down

Don’t let it fool you the storm ain’t done

Flood waters rolling in and my hearts gonna drown

Our love wilted like a flower that ain’t got enough sun

Well the thunder in my head might go away

And the river of pain will flow back to the sea

If you would only come back home to stay

It’d bring a stop to the rain and happiness to me

Well if you would just come back I’d be so grateful

And the storm would be over

The world wouldn’t seem so mean and hateful

And I’d lay you down on a bed of yellow clover
