My mind is racing all the time And where it's going I don't know but I don't mind And all the aching in her eyes Couldn't tell you half the story if they tried But she just stands there on high And lays me low again Lightning flashes in the sky Behind those clouds and it surrounds us on all sides Yeah there's a storm that's closing tight And we both know we're in the eye But she just stands there on high And lays me low again All those ghosts they line the shore now Waving red flags in my mind Saying, "Get out of that river, child… There's no telling where it winds" And the wind blows by my body As I float downstream so light There is nothing quite as lovely As the way they all go white
