Summer Storm (Leaving You Behind)

Date: July 27, 2004
****************************
Sky's darkening
Looks like rain
Nothing like a good cold shower
To wash away my pain
No, that sky
Ain't no pretty shade of blue
I need that pouring rain
To rid myself of you

Let the cold droplets fall
I won't mind at all

I need the wind
And I need dark clouds
I need that rain
Pouring down so loud
I need a summer storm
To clear my mind
So I can leave my thoughts
Of you behind
I need the sound
Of thunder rolling
The wind will soothe me
And the darkness is consoling
I need this summer storm
To clear my mind
I'm leaving you behind

I look out my window
At that sky so gray
Forgive and forget
That's what they say
Well I don't forgive so easily
And forgetting you
Seems so hard to me
But I know I've got to let go
That's just what I intend to do
So gimme that damn rain
I'll wash away my memories of you

Let the cold droplets fall
I won't mind at all

I need the wind
And I need dark clouds
I need that rain
Pouring down so loud
I need a summer storm
To clear my mind
So I can leave my thoughts
Of you behind
I need the sound
Of thunder rolling
The wind will soothe me
And the darkness is consoling
I need this summer storm
To clear my mind
I'm leaving you behind

I hear the wind start to pick up
I let the windows shake
I know she was right
And it was my heart to break
And a risk I chose to take
Well that rain sure is pouring
It's falling, falling down
Hear it pound the roof
Listen to the droplets hit the ground
It all seems to echo
Like a distant memory
As I watch the rain fall
I know this is what I need

Let the cold droplets fall
I won't mind at all

I need the wind
And I need dark clouds
I need that rain
Pouring down so loud
I need a summer storm
To clear my mind
So I can leave my thoughts
Of you behind
I need the sound
Of thunder rolling
The wind will soothe me
And the darkness is consoling
I need this summer storm
To clear my mind
I'm leaving you behind

Rain stops, finally
Darkess has past
It never can last
What's said is said
What's done is done
New faith rises
As a new day comes

I needed the wind
And I needed dark clouds
I needed the rain
Pouring down so loud
I needed that summer storm
To clear my mind
So I could leave my thoughts
Of you behind
I needed that sound
Of thunder rolling
The wind was soothing to me
The darkness was consoling
I needed that summer storm
To clear my muddled mind
I'm leaving you behind
Now I'm leaving you behind
Oh I needed that summer storm
Now I've surely made up my mind
You're not worth my time
I'm leaving you behind

Bringing it all back
You brought the thought back
What did you do?
What did you do!
You know that you
Really screwed up
So you live with that

Because I won't

Go back again
I won't
Go there again
I can't and I won't
I refuse to/I don't
Need to relive things
Just let them be
And you're not worth it
You're not worth it to me
And I've made up my mind..

Sorry doesn't work
Not this time
I don't
Need people like you
Around me
No I don't need people like you
To surround me
It's all your fault
You really screwed up
So you live with that
Yeah you live with it!

Because I won't

Go back again
I won't
Go there again
I can't and I won't
I refuse to/I don't
Need to relive things
Just let them be
And you're not worth it
You're not worth it to me
And I've made up my mind..

You want to talk?
Well I don't care
Shut up and go away
It's not fair
This is your fault
So deal with it
Yeah you deal with it
Just deal with it!

I won't!
I won't

Go back again
I won't
Go there again
I can't and I won't
I refuse to/I don't
Need to relive things
Just let them be
And you're not worth it
You're not worth it to me
And I've made up my mind
 

Hating Me For Loving You

*********************
I find it so hard to put my trust in you
And I don't want to
But I know that it's something
That I should do
I hate living like this
I thought love
Was supposed to be bliss
Instead of this
Slow pain
Driving me insane..

I try not to-
But I CAN'T STOP!
I don't want to-
But I CAN'T NOT!
How could this not and how could this be
By loving you I'm losing me..

Putting my faith in you
Is like
Losing my trust in me
Because every time I try to love
I fail and I can't see
Yeah I lose my sight
And my ideas of reality
It's so difficult for me
To trust you-
I don't know if I should
I don't know what to do..

I try not to
But I CAN'T STOP!
I don't want to
But I CAN'T NOT!
I couldn't help it if I wanted to
I am hating me for loving you..

You're haunting me
You're haunting me
Haunting all of my
Thought and dreams
I can'y seem to think clearly
By loving you I'm..
I'm losing me!

I try not to-
But I CAN'T STOP!
I don't want to-
But I CAN'T NOT!
How could this not and how could this be
By loving you I'm losing me..
I try not to
But I CAN'T STOP!
I don't want to
But I CAN'T NOT!
I couldn't help it if I wanted to
I am hating me for loving you

******************************
Well he's up and gone

He left her standing there

She's just a young girl, really

Oh, she though he cared

Now she's walking slowly

Down the street

She breaks down at the bus stop bench

Finally admitting defeat

ch-
He stole her heart

And then he broke it

He kissed her

Then he just split

He promised her the moon and stars

But that was just a lie

Now she's sad and lonely

She keeps trying not to cry

She don't know what love means

Oh, she's only, only

Only thirteen


She misses him so much, now

Even though she don't want to

Maybe if she called him up

He'd tell her, "I'm sorry,

And I love you."

But the number he left

Is out of order

And she used up her last quarter

At that payphone

Now she's all alone

repeat ch

Next day, it's early
And she's home

Her eyes are red and swollen

Her sister asks what's wrong

She says, "My heart was stolen."

Oh, see her sitting as the sun rises

Her sister says

That it's a brand new day

And everything will be okay

last ch-
He stole her heart

And then he broke it

He kissed her

Then he just split

He had promised her the moon and stars

She knows now it was just a lie

He has made her stronger

She'll move on

She won't cry

She was sad and lonely

She don't know what love means now

But someday

In some way

She'll know- somehow

Oh, she's only, only

Only thirteen

**************
I don't know why
I love you
But I do
And I won't lie
To you
Anymore
Everything that I've
Been telling you is true
There's just one thing
That I've got left to do
One thing
That I know I should tell you
Well
The fact is
I am in love with you
I know that now
But what the hell am I supposed to do?
If I tell you
Will you pull away more?
My heart couldn't take it
My heart is already bruised and sore
I don't know what to do
All I know is I'm screwed
Either way
If I told you
I don't know what you'd do
Or what you'd say
So yeah
I'm screwed either way
