Don Mescall - Stormy Weather Friend Lyrics

You can be so beautiful,
The armour that you wear just wasn't made for you.
You try so hard to hide the truth,
I know It breaks your heart,
That I'm afraid for you.
Please don't think you ever have to change for me,
We both know how blessed a little rain can be.

Chorus:
So why nail all the windows down,
Is it because you feel it coming round?
Everyone needs a little help,
Don't be so hard on yourself,
Why don't you take my hand,
My stormy weather friend.

When the lilies bloom in mid-July,
The evening sun takes refuge,
In your heavy heart.
Distance spins a tender lie,
The calm before it all begins to break apart.
And I've learned to recognize the signs before the storm,
I've seen them in your eyes so many times before.

Chorus:
So why nail all the windows down,
Is it because you feel it coming round?
Everyone needs a little help,
Don't be so hard on yourself.
Why don't you take my hand,
In stormy weather?

It's alright,
We'll wait in the basement,
We've got flashlights,

Water and blankets,
We'll hold tight,
'Cause were gonna make it through.

Everybody needs a little help,
Don't be so hard on yourself.

Everybody needs a little help,
Don't be so hard on yourself.

Why don't you take my hand,
My stormy weather friend?
