Dam Of My Heart Lyrics - Ely Joe

(Joe Ely) 

There's a flood in the suburbs 

Where will all the water go 

I'm down at your shack 

Hangin' on to your back door 

You tell me you're the kind 

That likes to change your mind 

And when you start to rain you pour 

But this dam of my heart just can't hold much more 

The six o'clock weather 

Tells me there's a pressure zone 

I'm considering whether 

The weather man's right or wrong 

He tells me you're the kind 

That likes to change your mind 

And when you start to rain you pour 

But this dam of my heart just can't hold much more 

Pull out all the stoppers 

Gotta let my feelings drain 

This poor heart of mine 

Ain't never seen such rain 

It tells me you're the kind 

That likes to change your mind 

And when you start to rain you pour 

But this dam of my heart just can't hold much more 

This dam of my heart holding back a rip tide 

Holding back a whirlpool 

Holding back an overflow 

And this dam of my heart - can't hold much more 

Thunderclaps are rocking 

Umbrellas inside out 

The weatherman tells me 

It's the end of a lover's drought 

He tells me you're the kind 

That likes to change your mind 

And when you start to rain you pour 

But this dam of my heart just can't hold much more.
