Cloud Riders

verse 1 Standing on the edge of the cliff Didn’t think it would come to this A dead calm before the storm Not a sound from their engines From the other side, saw a shooting star at 4:22 a.m verse 2 A warning shot from the rhythm demons Or from the guitar preachers I’ve been touched by both And by the Holy Ghost From the other side, saw a shooting star at 4:22 a.m Underneath the stars above I said, "No stop I am not giving up on us." And I am not going anywhere soon Annie, grab your bass guitar Help me bring in the October moon Then you shout, "Run for cover." I scream, "Rev the Triumph’s engine." You say "Baby we’re too late From the Cloud Riders, no escape." Darling, what’s the blanket for? Riding out this storm We’ll be riding out this storm verse 3 Carved a stave against the grain At the nine doors to gain The secrets of trees Once I could hear them singing From the other side verse 4 Back then, the thunder gods They used to cast our lots But then I lost touch Close to when her chariot From the other side Verse 5 A chariot pulled by cats Purring, "we'll be returning." From the other side "Girl, it’s time you take back your life." Underneath the stars above I said, "No stop I am not giving up on us." And I am not going anywhere soon Annie, grab your bass guitar Help me bring in the October moon Then you shout, "Run for cover." I scream, "Rev the Triumph’s engine." You say "Baby we’re too late From the Cloud Riders, no escape." Darling, what’s the blanket for? Riding out this storm We’ll be riding out this storm
