Heat Lightning Rumbles in the Distance Lyrics
Heat lightning rumbles in the distance
Sounds from west of the trees
The old old's gone and the house is falling gone
But the ghosts are a comfort to me
Ghosts of my family and the time it's moved on
Changing the whole garden new
Standing here in the days for a while
Strong beside you
Strong beside you on this land that I brought you too
Strong beside you with my arm holding you close
Strong beside you with these babies at our feet
The warm summer wind blows
The warm summer wind blows, the chimney's fell down
The grass ain't been cut and the road into town
Cuts through woods and the barn needs a roof
There's things more important than holding proof
Holding the proof and it's keeping me strong
Won't miss this house we're in much longer
This hollowing much longer, takes its toe on us both
And I guess that it's good that it shown
Looking for a comfort in the known
Looking for a comfort in the known
Nothing takes the place to the ones you left behind
This place you always held in this heart of mine

Holding on too long to the place you always healed
Heat lightning rumbles in the distance
As I creep slowly by I hold myself together
Someone between anguish and acceptance
As I creep slowly by I hold myself together
Someone between anguish and acceptance
