Love In The Time Of Drought

(album: Planet Country - 2009)

It was dusty in December, the drought was setting in
Could see the heat haze rising off the corrugated tin
And nothing stirred out in the holding yard
She came right out of nowhere like a summer rain
Could feel her wrap around me, the breath upon my skin
And she touched me deep down inside my heart

It was thunder, it was lightning
The sky opened up and love tumbled down
It was fearless, it was reckless, it was real It's rain on dust
It was love in the time of drought

We watched the neon sunset, I held her body close
The western stars exploded our love and overflowed
Then we laid there, lost in each other's arms

It was thunder, it was lightning the sky opened up and love tumbled down
It was fearless, it was reckless, it was real
It's rain on dust
It was love in the time of drought

Tumbling over you, tumbling over me

It was thunder, it was lightning, the sky opened up and love tumbled down
It was fearless, it was reckless, it was real
It's rain on dust
It was love in the time of drought

In the time of drought
It was real
