Cold Cold Rain

from Vacilador by The Giving Tree Band

lyrics

Lightning struck the day I left
In your defense I do regret
I’d be lying to say I never thought of you

But I had to live another way
If I wanted to live another day
‘Cause I can’t help but do the things I do

And I was standin’
In the cold
Cold cold rain
When a north wind
A north wind blew
My love away, my love away

Whiskey soaked by the firelight
That pale moon was on the rise
And stars shone through the darkest of the night

And I could tell things weren’t quite right
You were gone like a bird in flight
And I couldn’t even lift my hand to fight

When they came to take me down
I was glad that you were not around
But why’d you tell them where I could be found

And clouds filled up that lonely sky
And I will see it by and by
But off into the darkness I did ride
