Lyrics

The Next Storm

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

We had a difficult winter

We had a rough few months

When the storms came in off the coast

If felt like they broke everything on us at once

It's easy enough to talk about blitz spirit

When your not holding the roof up or knee deep in it

And the pictures and the papers got ruined by the rain

And we wondered if they'd ever get dry again

But I don't wanna spend the whole of my life indoors

Lay low, I'm waiting on the next storm

I don't wanna spend the whole of my life inside

I wanna step out and face the sunshine

We lost faith in the omens

We lost faith in the gods

We just ended up clutching at the empty rituals

Like gamblers clutching on hearts

And I don't care what the weatherman is saying

Because the last time that I saw him, he was on his knees, he was praying

The preachers and the sign just got soaked just the same

And we wondered if they'd ever get dry again

But I don't wanna spend the whole of my life indoors

Lay low, I'm waiting on the next storm

I don't wanna spend the whole of my life inside

I wanna step out and face the sunshine

So open the shutters

Raise up the masts

Rejoice! Rebel! The storm has passed!

Cast up the crutches

Or go with the cast

Rejoice! Rebel! The storm has passed!

Rejoice! Rebel! The storm has passed!

But I don't wanna spend the whole of my life indoors (rejoice! Rejoice!)

Lay low, I'm waiting on the next storm

(Rejoice! Rebel! The storm has passed!)

I don't wanna spend the whole of my life inside

(Rejoice! Rejoice!)

I wanna step out and face the sunshine

(Rejoice! Rebel! The storm has passed!)

I'm not gonna live the whole of my life indoors

I'm gonna step out and face the next storm
