Sometimes (Lester Piggott)

[Verse 1] There's a storm outside And the gap between crack and thunder Crack and thunder Is closing in, is closing in The rain floods gutters And makes a great sound on concrete On a flat roof, there's a boy leaning against the wall of rain, aerial held high Calling, "Come on, thunder! Come on, thunder!" [Chorus] Sometimes When I look deep in your eyes I swear I can see your soul Sometimes When I look deep in your eyes I swear I can see your soul [Verse 2] It's a monsoon! And the rain lifts lids off cars Spinning buses like toys, stripping them to chrome Across the bay The waves are turning into something else Picking up fishing boats and spewing them on the shore The boy is hit! Lit up against the sky, like a sign Like a neon sign And he crumples, drops into the gutter Cut string, legs twitching The flood swells his clothes And delivers him on Delivers him on [Chorus] Sometimes When I look deep in your eyes I swear I can see your soul Sometimes When I look deep in your eyes I swear I can see your soul [Instrumental] [Verse 3] There's four new colours in the rainbow An old man's taking Polaroids But all he captures is endless rain Endless rain Endless rain He says "Listen" Takes my head and puts my ear to his And I swear I can hear the sea [Outro] Sometimes (sometimes), I look in your eyes And see your soul (I can reach your soul) Sometimes (sometimes), I look in your eyes And see your soul (I can touch your soul) Sometimes (sometimes), I look in your eyes And see your soul (I can hear your soul) Sometimes, I look (sometimes) in your eyes And see your soul Sometimes, I look in your eyes And see your soul Sometimes, I look in your eyes And see your soul Sometimes, I look in your eyes And see your soul Sometimes, I look in your eyes And see your soul Sometimes, I look in your eyes And see your soul Sometimes, I look in your eyes And see your soul
