Wales

I was a child then, as I guess I still am now
I wrote you letters you could not read
And if I ever die, as I eventually will do
I’ll see you on the burning street

We went to Wales, oh
On a sailboat
In a lightning storm
She covered up my face, wooh
Not to hide me up
But to keep me warm

We went to Wales, oh
On a sailboat
In a lightning storm
She covered up my face, wooh
Not to hide me up
But to keep me warm

I stayed up counting stars, and hungering for you
To find out what the kid was named
And in the lonely dark that always precedes you
I was the secret in your game

We went to Wales, oh
On a sailboat
In a lightning storm
She covered up my face, wooh
Not to hide me up
But to keep me warm

We went to Wales, oh
On a sailboat
In a lightning storm
She covered up my face, wooh
Not to hide me up
But to keep me warm

Beneath our storm
Like she’s always done
Like she’s always done
Like she’s always done

Like she’s always done
Like she’s always done
Like she’s always done

We went to Wales, oh
On a sailboat
In a lightning storm
She covered up my face, wooh
Not to hide me up
But to keep me warm

Like she’s always done
