Dry My Tears

There's a sorrow handed down to me
Is it written in the stars
Like a siren calling through the streets
We hope we know what's ours
The story that you passed along
Isn't what I've known
The words I have sewn
Are a quilt of my own

Let the damn rush and overflow
Throw this coat off of me
When I'm caught in the undertow
Anyone can see I just can't leave

Funny how the drought became
An abundant flow of rain
At night I heard a lark cry out
We'll sing until we're drained
I felt a storm a comin on, I rushed into the wind
Matters where ya been
Live and breathe again

Let the damn rush and overflow
Throw this coat off of me
When I'm caught in the undertow
Anyone can see I just can't leave alone

Oh your troubles dance upon the floor
I couldn't hesitate, I couldn't wait to find the door
Oh, when I know I don't belong
I'm burdened by the weight
You feel you'll suffocate

I had the heart to sympathize
And though I've never worn your shoes
Your song is too familiar it keeps me on the move
In windy skies of blue

Let the damn rush and overflow
Throw this coat off of me
When I'm caught in the undertow
Anyone can see I just can't leave

Let the damn rush and overflow
Throw this coat off of me
When I'm caught in the undertow
Anyone can see I just can't leave alone
