lyrics

Well there’s a cold and fickle storm outside my darling,
But it’s not enough to talk about with you,
‘Cause with a simple tune you could make it June my darling,
And how I long to see those stormy nights again.
Though I’m sure you know it’s hardly enough water,
To set the eyes of emperors ablaze.
And though each drop reflects your face my darling
It’s just not enough for any man to take away.
Chorus:
I can’t go home,
No I’m never going home,
I would rather talk about the weather,
‘Cause I can’t go home,
No I’m never going home,
All these storms will just be for the better.
If I could make you jump and dance around the room my dear,
Would you grab my hands and pull me up too?
‘Cause I’m awash with curiosity darling,
And how I long to be awash with you—with you.
Chorus:
I can’t go home,
No I’m never going home,
I would rather talk about the weather,
‘Cause I can’t go home,
No I’m never going home,
All these storms will just be for the better.
Yes, it’s a long walk home,
But I must be getting close,
Because I have never felt this sort of weather.
Oh yes, it’s a long walk home
But I must be getting close,
And I could not have asked for any better.
