Dixie Chicks Thunderheads Lyrics

Thunderheads Lyrics

The kids are playing in the sand Supper's on the table and there's promise in
the sky And my hair is nearly dry You're not praying, so I do You're out there
on your ginger mare Not so much a prayer for rain  But a desperate prayer for
you Like a heartless lover's lie Thunderheads blow across the mesa Thunderheads
across the mountains As another dream goes by They glow like clouds from heaven
But the devil has to have his way Thunderheads will bring you to your knees And
make you pray for a rainy day  I know you can't admit it That you've lost and
nature's won Across the dying sun That thunderheads will blow away So don't try
to tell me darling How your heart's lost to the land  I don't need your
explanations I just want to hold your hand When it rains the dust will die
We'll listen to the music on the roof We'll laugh again and love And we'll lie
upon the sheets And fall asleep Just like the years when we had rain Then
you'll feel the need to let me Near your heart again
