The drought was the very worst, ah-ah, ah-ah When the flowers that we'd grown together died of thirst It was months and months of back and forth, ah-ah, ah-ah You're still all over me like a wine-stained dress I can't wear anymore
Hung my head as I lost the war And the sky turned black like a perfect storm
The rain came pouring down When I was drownin', that's when I could finally breathe And by mornin', gone was any trace of you I think I am finally clean
There was nothin' left to do, ah-ah, ah-ah When the butterflies turned to dust that covered my whole room So I punched a hole in the roof, ah-ah, ah-ah Let the flood carry away all my pictures of you
The water filled my lungs I screamed so loud, but no one heard a thing
The rain came pourin' down When I was drownin', that's when I could finally breathe And by mornin', gone was any trace of you I think I am finally clean
I think I am finally clean Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah Said I think I am finally clean Ah-ah-ah
Ten months sober, I must admit Just because you're clean, don't mean you don't miss it Ten months older, I won't give in Now that I'm clean, I'm never gonna risk it
The drought was the very worst, ah-ah, ah-ah When the flowers that we'd grown together died of thirst
The rain came pourin' down When I was drownin', that's when I could finally breathe And by mornin', gone was any trace of you I think I am finally clean The rain came pourin' down When I was drownin', that's when I could finally breathe And by mornin', gone was any trace of you I think I am finally clean
