Today is a winding road That's taking me to places that I didn't want to go Whoa Today, in the blink of an eye I'm holding on to something and I do not know why I tried I tried to read between the lines, I tried to look in your eyes I want a simple explanation for what I'm feeling inside I gotta find a way out Maybe there's a way out Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer Do you know you're unlike any other? You'll always be my thunder, and I said Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors I don't wanna ever love another You'll always be my thunder So bring on the rain And bring on the thunder Today is a winding road Tell me where to start and tell me something I don't know Whoa Today, I'm on my own I can't move a muscle and I can't pick up the phone I don't know And now I'm itching for the tall grass and longing for the breeze I need to step outside just to see if I can breathe I gotta find a way out Maybe there's a way out Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer Do you know you're unlike any other? You'll always be my thunder, and I said Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors I don't wanna ever love another You'll always be my thunder So bring on the rain Yeah, I'm walking on a tightrope, I'm wrapped up in vines I think I'll make it out, but you just gotta give me time Strike me down with lightning, let me feel you in my veins I wanna let you know how much I feel your pain Today is a winding road That's taking me to places that I didn't want to go Whoa Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer Do you know you're unlike any other?

So roll like thunder And leak like fire And fall like the rain down down down Well I think I'm insane now now now now You got away No way to think I got away Yeah you got away No way to think I got away 'Cause you roll like thunder And you leak like fire And you fall like the rain down down down down Well l'm not ashamed now now now now And we all make mistakes So roll like thunder And leak like fire And fall like the rain down down down Yeah we're all insane now now now now

I never knew my father He left when I was young They say he was a proud man As good as they come He left like all the others When no work could be found He smiled and told my mother I won't let you down The autumn turned to winter And the light left her eyes No footsteps on the front porch No word of him arrived A promise torn to pieces And tossed to the ground Though at night she grieved him She never made a sound I know he had a reason I know a man can get lost Whatever he believed in I know he suffered the cost His picture's almost faded But I filled in the lines And nothing's unforgiven So father don't you cry Now the years have found me With a child of my own Another generation That must carry the load But somewhere there's a memory In the back of my mind I see my father smiling With a face like mine

I could have you up in arms And I could have you singing I'm a confident speaker I could tell you anything I was standing on the table Legs by the light right near the window I could see them walking past They were laughing, no one we know They caught me by the ankles and they shook me out My brain is fuzzy I'm a sugar coated pill and I'm a pick me up And put me down again They hollowed me out, wore me like a glove I shook so many hands I've been dreaming of You can use my rib cage as a pillow It doesn't suit me I feel flimsy when I grin Like a stretched out piece of skin You can beat the dust straight out of me I'll come clean in the end I really like the yellow 'round the edges Of my bruises as they mend They took me by the ankles and they shook me out My brain turned fuzzy I'm a sugar coated pill and I'm a pick me up And put me down again They hollowed me out, wore me like a glove I shook so many hands I've been dreaming of

Sooner or later, you'll find yourself right where you were On the corner, went looking for her She had something to tell you, she can't quite remember But wait for a second, it always comes back to her You always come back to her You're still on her time, wherever you are You don't wanna go in, so you sit in the car And you wait for a feeling, it never quite hits And you wait for the moment she reaches your lips She never quite hits She'll do that thing where she sits at your feet And it used to be so hot, now it's just sweet You start to cry and she can't help but laugh She says, "Try to enjoy it as long as it lasts" Sometimes when you are alone, you can't look in her eyes 'Cause it's like you are reading a book And her pages are turning so fast in a glance You can see how it ends and you wish that you couldn't, oh-oh 'Cause it always comes back to her You always come back to her I drove to the ocean to see the sunset I was on the wrong side of the cliff, so I left I got talking to someone, I gave her a lift to the station She waved as she ran for her train And she had no idea she was making my day Sooner or later, you'll find yourself right where you were On the corner, went looking for her She had something to tell you, she can't quite remember But wait for a second, it always comes back to her You always come back to her You always come back to her (always come back to her) You always come back to her (always come back to her)

I needed someone to depend upon I was alone, I was emotional Searching for the right emoticon To expand my mental lexicon Then Gemma told me that she met someone It was the person I'd been counting on It felt good, it felt transitional A feeling I'd been waiting on You were floating like a lilo With your eyes closed, going where the tide goes Caught in flux, you drifted 'til you hit the sides Hold my breath another minute I can keep my head, there's nothing in it I'm a patient wave And it's an easy ride I saw myself an intellectual I thought that I was capable Every move was just habitual And life was just a ritual Then Gemma told me that she met somebody Nobody else could take me from myself I wasn't searching for it anymore The feeling I'd been waiting for You were floating like a lilo With your eyes closed, going where the tide goes Caught in flux, you drifted 'til you hit the sides Hold my breath another minute I can keep my head, there's nothing in it I'm a patient wave (I'm a patient wave) And it's an easy ride Floating like a lilo with you Going where the tide goes Floating like a lilo with you Going where the tide goes Floating like a Floating like a Floating like a Floating like a You were floating like a lilo With your eyes closed, going where the tide goes Caught in flux, you drifted 'til you hit the sides Hold my breath another minute I can keep my head, there's nothing in it I'm a patient wave (I'm a patient wave) And it's an easy ride

I don't wanna go yet I don't wanna come yet Lying on your chest I think I know you best I don't wanna go yet I don't wanna come yet Lying on your chest I think I know you best

She's all that I live on 'cause I've run out of it I'm all out of everything else Pick up if you, if you can 'cause I'm outside somewhere I don't feel too well, ah-ah-ah-ah Well, I think we're onto something, baby And I know I'm such a baby But here you are Somehow, it feels different And then, baby goes again From your house to my house It takes no time at all, it takes no time at all I keep circling, can't stop a circle But I keep coming back around, at least I keep coming back around Well, I think we're onto something, baby And I know I'm such a baby, but here you are Somehow, it feels different And then, baby goes again Baby goes again
