Graham Parker - Thunder and Rain Lyrics

Cold night air everywhere, holes in my feet and bats in my hair
TV meals scattered 'round, glazed up eyes rolling through town
And when night, black me out in a flash, I found out
Lovers get caught just the same in the thunder and rain
In the thunder and rain

All I heard empty words but empty words don't count
Devil's home spikes and bones
Ain't worse than loneliness and doubt
And the long corridor push me on to your door
But I got caught just the same in the thunder and rain

Thu-u-under and ra-a-ain
Thu-u-nder and ra-a-ain
Thu-u-nder and ra-a-ain
Thu-u-under and ra-a-ain

I thought your love would pull me through
So I left my coat at home with you
But when the door shut tight on you
Lovers get caught just the same in the thunder and rain

Lightning cracked I fell back, hail dropped like bullets through the air
Pull me in by my skin, give me the strength to go out there
'Cause when night, black me out, in a flash I found out
Lovers get caught just the same in the thunder and rain
Yes they do, I tell you

Lovers get caught just the same in the thunder and rain
Thunder and rain
I know that lovers get caught just the same in the thunder and rain
Thunder and rain
I tell you lovers get caught just the same in the thunder and rain
Thunder and rain, thu-u-u-under and rain, in the thunder and rain
