Rolling Clouds

The summer was purring like a kitten Until the record needle starting skipping I was squeaking through the screen door In your kitchen So do you want to go downtown with me stop by the library? You rode by my side On your dad's old ten speed It felt like everything was finally perfect We rode past the empty stores The churches But then i looked in your eyes And they were anxious And they were nervous Under all the rolling clouds Over all the fields that surround This tiny town Later that night you started to cry Ran into the bathroom and locked yourself inside the bathroom I wanted to knock down the door but instead i just leaned against the other side Sometimes it feels like i still don't know you After all these years After all the stupid stuff we've gone through How many horror movies have we sat through How many sour patch kids How many two liters of mountain dew I want to see you get through this But it seems like nothing i say makes any difference When i left your house that night i felt totally awful And selfish Under all the rolling clouds Over all the fields that surround And trap us in this tiny town Maybe i did the wrong thing Maybe i should have stayed Maybe you were gonna feel better, maybe Maybe nothing would have changed Most nights i just throw a movie in the vcr And fall asleep on the couch and wake up tired I try not to miss you But i don't try very hard I remember stopping by a long time ago Heard you inside playing piano I sat down on the front step And listened through the window Under all the rolling clouds The blue breaking through Over all the fields that surround This tiny town Under all the rolling clouds The blue busting through Over all the fields that surround This tiny town
