Tim Easton - Watching the Lightning Lyrics

When all the work is over,
And it's just begun.
I probably shouldn't have told you,
That I wasn't coming back for long.
I need you still,
Tonight my face could tell the story better.
I never meant to leave you.

Everybody always knew,
That he would die in some f*cked up way.
And hearing that message now,
It makes me want to stay away forever.
He knew all pain,
And we knew his heart was not in the gutter.
He never meant to leave you.

Dry your mind's eye and pick yourself back up,
You never really knew where he was coming from.
When you're watching the lightning,
I hope you're not afraid anymore.
The sky would only hurt you,
If you never left the ground before.

I can't believe you read that letter.
I can't believe you read that letter.
I can't believe you read that letter.

Dry your mind's eye and pick yourself back,
You never really knew where I was coming from.
When you're watching the lightning,
I hope you're not afraid anymore.
The sky would only hurt you,
If you never left the ground before.

I never meant to leave you.
I never meant to leave you.
I never meant to leave you.
