Sandy Window

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The sky went brown at noon Your porch was all sand Cup in the sink, half full Doorbell buried in my hand The wind kept on talking Through the screen and the crack You shut the blinds slow Like you knew it was coming back [Pre-Chorus] And the chairs tipped over One by one We stood in the hallway Waiting for the run [Chorus] Stormy sandy weather Pull me close together Stormy sandy weather Hold me through the fever (Stormy sandy weather) (Stormy sandy weather) [Verse 2] Your boots left prints on the tile Little dunes by the mat We laughed at the front step Then the rain came hard on that The world turned thin and loud All grit, all sound I saw your name in the haze Then the whole street bowed down [Pre-Chorus] And the trees bent over Like they knew our song We locked the door and listened Till the dark passed on [Chorus] Stormy sandy weather Pull me close together Stormy sandy weather Hold me through the fever (Stormy sandy weather) (Stormy sandy weather) [Bridge] When the glass was gold with dust And the power blinked out You found my shaking hands In the middle of the doubt I don't need clear skies I just need your light In the grit and thunder You feel like home tonight [Chorus] Stormy sandy weather Pull me close together Stormy sandy weather Hold me through the fever (Stormy sandy weather) (Stormy sandy weather)
