Been a lot of rain out there
Rainin' blind
Summer's comin' slow ... this year
It's rainin' blind
If ya come back tonight
... I'll let it ... fall away
If ya come back tonight
Ya better have ... the guts to stay
Gravel's loose ... and the load is shiftin'
Dreams are heavy ... they could use ... some ... liftin'
Come back now ... lay all your burdens down
And with a little luck ... I'll lift your burdens up
Between my thoughts and my deeds
Delusion lies
I've forgotten everything
We ever tried
But if ya come back tonight
Careful what you bring
The sky's unwinding here
Twisted like a busted spring
Gravel's loose ... and the load is shiftin'
Dreams are heavy ... they could use ... some ... liftin'
Come back now ... and lay all your burdens down
And with a little luck ... I'll lift your burdens up ... burdens up
If ya need me ... you can call
If ya need me ... I will call you
If ya need me ... you can call
If I need you ... I will call you
Ain't goin' anywhere fast
Gonna sit right here
'Til the sky blows ... blows on past
Come back now ... lay all your burdens down
And with a little luck ... I'll lift your burdens up
And when the trigger's pulled ... ya know I'll follow through
And you can bet your luck ... I'll list your burdens up ... burdens up
