Common Children - Storm Boy lyrics

The stormy little boy stares out the window

It's freezing to him living there inside

Sometimes in his room he feels the wind blow

And it's there the thorn is twisting in his side

So he takes the last train out today

And all his sacred secrets he hides away

Try to understand the many years and where they ran

All his feelings shining in our eyes

Wish to wash away the wishing that his life would change

Stumble through the back roads of our lives

A frozen little man peeks out his window

And the memories shiver down his spine

Sometimes in his mind he feels the pain go

But still the thorn is twisting in his side

So he takes the last train out today

He throws his chosen secrets all away

Try to understand the many years and where they ran

All his feelings shining in our eyes

Wish to wash away the wishing that our lives would change

Stumble through the back roads of our lives

Try to understand who you are and where I am

All his feelings shining in our eyes

Wish to wash away the wishing that our lives would change

Stumble through the back roads of our lives

Stumble through the back roads of our lives
