Remember When That Train Wrecked Our Lifestyle? - Driver Friendly

Can you hear me?

I am choking on rain clouds

Coughing up lightning;

trembling like thunder

The water is coming in (It's pulling me under)

For forty days, four-hundred nights, with no wind in sight

I know these clouds will never part ways

(But sunlight started creeping)

You came in like the southern wind

Started blowing in, started knocking me down

I felt alive when I hit the ground

(To me you are the desert sand)

You came in like the southern wind

(To me you’re comfort like dry land)

Started blowing in, started knocking me down

(You shelter me from the storm)

I felt alive when I hit the ground

(You are the hands that keep me warm)

So, so, so Southern Wind, pick me up and dry me out

Take away all my fear;

erase my doubts

I’m a castaway and I’m afraid (of dying alone)

(I want to know) what it’s like to breathe again

I want to hear my own heart beat again

I’m tired of drowning

You came in like the southern wind

Started blowing in, started knocking me down

I felt alive when I hit the ground

(To me you are the desert sand)

You came in like the southern wind

(To me you’re comfort like dry land)

Started blowing in, started knocking me down

(You shelter me from the storm)

I felt alive when I hit the ground

(You are the hands that keep me warm)

Now I am not afraid to take on the rain

And I won’t shy away from these white waves

Crashing down around my face

Set an open course for the eye of the storm

I’m ready to chase my white whale

So let loose these tattered sails

And it doesn’t matter (no, I’m not afraid)

If I make it back or if I fail, Because you saved me

And that will be enough somehow (white waves)

Not even (come crashing down) an ocean could stop me now

(Around my face) no, not even an ocean could stop me now

You came in like the southern wind

Started blowing in, started knocking me down

I felt alive when I hit the ground

(To me you are the desert sand)

You came in like the southern wind

(To me you’re comfort like dry land)

Started blowing in, started knocking me down

(You shelter me from the storm)

I felt alive when I hit the ground

(You are the hands that keep me warm)

To me you are the desert sand (I won’t)

To me you’re comfort like dry land (shy away)

(From these) You shelter me from the storm (white waves)

Crashing down around my face

Not even an ocean could stop me now, no

Not even an ocean could stop me now, no
