Ezra Furman - 40 days in Kansas lyrics

[Verse 1] 40 days in Kansas 40 nights in pain This world took my fame That world took my name Here go I with nothing Here go I the same White swan on the river Black swan in the rain I could hear the thunder Rolling far away [Verse 2] Moses hid the water Jesus hid the sky We just hid the in-between And kissed it all goodbye Catch me when I'm falling Catch me in the rise Wash me in the river Hold me in your mind I could hear the thunder Rolling far behind [Chorus 1] Thunder roll For the evening with its blue-black tone Thunder roll For the morning with its great unknown Thunder roll its bones [Verse 3] White wing on the water Black wing on the sand Red wing in the sunset I can hardly stand Sleeping in the doorway With a bottle in your hand I could hear the thunder Rolling across the land [Chorus 2] Thunder roll For the young blushing groom and bride Thunder roll For the old with their tired eyes Thunder roll goodbye
