After The Storm Lyrics - Swimmin' Time - Shovels & Rope

Said I thought it would be colder 

You put your head upon my shoulder 

Ain't it funny 

How time just seems to run 

What the hell have you been doin' 

Not too sure, guess mostly movin' 

I've been spinnin' for so long 

Now I guess I'm spun 

Like the widest river 

Like the brightest morn 

There is hope where you can't see it 

There is a light after the storm 

But won't you help me to get through it 

I've been flailing like a child 

My mistakes, they are so many 

For my lovin heart is wild 

Not quite old 

But far from young 

Body bold(?) 

With a youthful tongue 

Like a kiss held out of context 

I can't separate my mind 

We can set this boat on fire 

We can leave it all behind 

Like the widest river 

Like the brightest morn 

There is hope just up ahead 

There is a shelter safe and warm 

But won't you help me to get to it 

I've been selfish 

I have lied 

My mistakes they are so many 

For my ruthless is wild 

Like the winds that shield the plains 

And cut you down to size 

None but the dust and seed remain 

They root themselves and rise 

Like the widest river 

Like the brightest morn 

There is hope where you can't see it 

There is a light after the storm 

But won't you help me to get through it 

I've been flailing like a child 

My mistakes they are so many 

For my weary heart is wild
