lyrics

Weatherman, weatherman
I've been bad
I danced for the rain to end

Getting by, getting by
I'm shameless
I'll take the rain and run

Thought of you
Because its June
You love the lightning too

I wish we were new

Scarecrow, Scarecrow
I do regret
The empty chest I left you with

Farm house, roof bows
Listing in the wind
I heard a leaf touch tin

Listened for your boots
On this wet cracked June
Electric light killed the fireflies

I wish I could cry

I don't know, I don't know
Don't know why

I don't know, I don't know
Don't know why

The truth hurts more than a lie

Weatherman, weatherman
I've been bad
I danced for the rain to end

I don't know, I don't know
Don't know why

I don't know, I don't know
Don't know why
