Cowboy Jack Louise - THE FLOOD Lyrics

I'm the all time blue ribbon winner
Of the heartbreak rodeo
Your tears have driven me to higher ground
And I'm headed for a brand new low

The tide is high
In this desert we call love
They're prayin' for more rain
Me I'm waitin' on the flood

You said to me, long time ago
When I was livin' on the run
Love dies hard, it don't fade away
It just stops bein' fun

I'm too tired to pretend
Our love has reached the end

The clouds are filled with pain
And the streets are lined with mud
They keep on prayin' for the rain
Soon they'll be cryin' about the flood

There was a time you were my friend
That was now and this is then

The clouds are filled with pain
And the streets are lined with mud
They keep on prayin' for the rain
Soon they'll be cryin' about the flood

You know the clouds are filled with pain
And the streets are lined with mud
They keep on prayin' for the rain
Soon they'll be cryin' about the flood
