I walked home in the rain using lines on the road | |
Just to guide my way back to the place I was headin’ | |
I took off my shoes and I let myself in | |
Tried to feel the warmth come back again | |
But this time the flood came a-poundin’ my door | |
So I packed all my things and I started off walking | |
I knew you were close as the waves ate the shore | |
I could feel you breathing | |
Feel you breathing | |
You stood there beside me to fight | |
And we built our levies to last through the night | |
And dug in like Spartans waiting for light | |
The lights on the hill were a constant torment | |
While way down in the valley we toiled | |
You were wet haired and muddy | |
With your will and your back bent | |
But, what a beautiful girl | |
Oh, what a beautiful girl | |
Who stood there beside me to fight | |
And she built her levies to last through the night | |
We dug in like Spartans waiting for light | |
I know what you will say | |
Before you say it | |
Even at the end… | |
I walked home in the rain using lines on the road | |
To guide my way back to the place that I started | |
With every step I was closer to home | |
I could feel the rain start to hold | |
You stood there beside me to fight | |
And we built our levies to last through the night | |
And dug in like Spartans waiting for light | |
What a beautiful girl |
I walked home in the rain using lines on the road | |
Just to guide my way back to the place I was headin' | |
I took off my shoes and I let myself in | |
Tried to feel the warmth come back again | |
But this time the flood came apoundin' my door | |
So I packed all my things and I started off walking | |
I knew you were close as the waves ate the shore | |
I could feel you breathing | |
Feel you breathing | |
You stood there beside me to fight | |
And we built our levies to last through the night | |
And dug in like Spartans waiting for light | |
The lights on the hill were a constant torment | |
While way down in the valley we toiled | |
You were wet haired and muddy | |
With your will and your back bent | |
But, what a beautiful girl | |
Oh, what a beautiful girl | |
Who stood there beside me to fight | |
And she built her levies to last through the night | |
We dug in like Spartans waiting for light | |
I know what you will say | |
Before you say it | |
Even at the end | |
I walked home in the rain using lines on the road | |
To guide my way back to the place that I started | |
With every step I was closer to home | |
I could feel the rain start to hold | |
You stood there beside me to fight | |
And we built our levies to last through the night | |
And dug in like Spartans waiting for light | |
What a beautiful girl |
