James - Sometimes lyrics

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"

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

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, cuts strange, legs twitching
The flood swells his clothes
And delivers him on, delivers him on

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

There's four new colors 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

Sometimes, when I look in your eyes
I can see your soul, I can reach your soul
Sometimes, when I look in your eyes
I can see your soul, I can touch your soul
Sometimes, when I look in your eyes
I can see your soul, I can hear your soul
Sometimes, look in your eyes
I can see your soul
Sometimes, look in your eyes
I can see your soul
Sometimes, look in your eyes
I can see your soul
Sometimes, look in your eyes
I can see your soul
