Strawbs - Stormy Down lyrics

rate me

The night sky hung so heavy<br />

The wet road shone so bright<br />

Reflecting back my headlights<br />

As I drove on in the night<br />

To Stormy Down.<br />

<br />

I drew into a lay-by<br />

My eyes were dark with strain<br />

Turning up my collar<br />

I walked out in the rain<br />

On Stormy Down.<br />

<br />

I was high on Stormy Down<br />

Thinking of my friends below<br />

But they had gone some other way<br />

They did not want to know<br />

About Stormy Down.<br />

<br />

I thought I saw the devil<br />

In the branches of a tree<br />

It was just imagination<br />

But he looked a lot like me<br />

On Stormy Down.<br />

<br />

The cold moon drew strange faces<br />

On a slowly changing cloud<br />

One looked like God the father<br />

And I shouted right out loud<br />

On Stormy Down.
