Marshall Crenshaw - Stormy River lyrics

rate me

Your eyes are brown like a stormy riverYour words they twist like a stormy riverYou turn to ice like a stormy river in the winterIn the winter, stormy river, stormy river is youIt's a bitter wind that's raging in youIn you so long you no longer hear itIt sweeps across the floor of your spiritStormy river, stormy river is youI'm gonna get far away, get far away fast'Cause the future looks just like the pastYou can't help but leave damage in your midstI've got no time left in my life for thisRain comes down like cannonballsThe thunder crashes, the engine stallsThe lightning hits the electric towerIn the midnight hour, stormy riverStormy river is youIt's a bitter wind that's raging in youMakes me wonder where you've been toBut I'm wary of asking questionsI don't want to be taught any more lessonsStormy river, stormy river is you
