lyrics

Well I smelled the rain and
I saw the storm but
I thought “thunder is as lightening does”
So I did not sound alarm
And now my hands are wet
And my feet are cold.
You’re a man who needs a hug
But won’t let anybody hold him.

You’ve got a heart like Cinderella
With a curfew that you keep:
Your love goes home at midnight
While I am losing sleep.
But you have left no glass slipper,
There’s no test for you to take.
And even if the shoe did fit,
How long until you break it?

Well, maybe you are fickle,
Maybe you are cruel.
You might be a wolf in clothing
Made of sheep’s wool.
But I am a wanderer,
road dirt in my shoes.
And I don’t run from love
So I’ve no use for those that do.

Well you’re jumping into puddles
And then running from the splash.
I never knew a person
Who could change their mind so fast.
But are you watching where you’re walking
When you’re fleeing from the scene?
Your hands have gotten dirty,
Are you still sure they’re clean?

You’re a lesson in forgiveness,
That’s all that I can say.
I knew that you could give
And now I’ve learned just what you take.
‘cause you’ve been many different people
making many different sounds;
I’d have to be a tracker
With my ear against the ground.

Well maybe you’re a fucker,
Maybe I’m a fool.
But you are just a man
Not sheep nor wolf.
But I’m still a wanderer,
That’s the road I choose.
And I’m running for love
With or without you.
