Lightning and Thunder Lyrics

i saw her standing there by the river's edge
the first time i'd ever felt at home
i could feel the weight inside bind me to the ledge
of being someone else i've never knowni said my name was john but she knew my name was jim
you must be the man with no religion
they say you're cold as ice but i see kindness in your eyes
and all your life there's been something missingbut i'll lead you darling out of the wild
away from that cold stealing hunger
the storm's been raging inside your cloud
i'll calm your lighting and thunder
for a long, long time i've been a wanted man
never in the way a woman tells
and you can't kill the pain with an age old shame
but i can't get a word in with myselfshe said to be just like a man who is made from flesh and blood
well i can see the ghost that you have been
who walks into the fire and who wades across the flood
the ghost is not the soul that makes the man
so i'll lead you darling out of the wild

away from that cross you've been under
the storm's been raging inside your cloud
i'll calm your lightning and thunder
i'll calm your lightning and thunder
