Lyrics After the Storm - Shovels & Rope

I 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 doing?
Not too sure guess just mostly moving
I've been spinning for so long and 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 loving 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 through it?
I've been selfish I have lied
My mistakes they are so many
For my ruthless heart is wild

Like the winds that sheer the plains
And cut you down to size
None but the dust and seeds 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
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
