The Thunder Rumbled Warning | |||||||||
|
I walk into the lonely yard When all the rest have gone I couldn't be with others now I had to come alone And nature sympathizes with The aching in my heart A storm is fast approaching And the skies are growing dark As the thunder rumbled warning And the breeze began to blow I gazed upon the barren ground Where grass will someday grow And I touched the chiseled name Upon the newly planted stone And the wind blew through the branches With a melancholy moan I fall upon my knees My bloodshot eyes raised to the sky And cry up to the heavens Tell me why, Lord, tell me why What purpose do you have To leave me here a wretched shell And take my love to Heaven Damning me to my worst Hell And the thunder rumbled warning And the rain began to fall And the fallen leaves from autumn Rustle out a raspy call And the wet clothes chill my body And they're sticking to my skin And I mourn the loss of one who's heart Will never beat again In vain, I railed against the sky The only answer: rain At last I fall to silence All encompassed in my pain I rest my weary head against The polished granite face And wonder if I'll have the strength To leave this dreary place And the thunder rumbled warning And the lightning laced the sky And the rain is pelting down upon The ground where you now lie And the raindrops dripping from my cheeks Are mingled with my tears As I'm missing you already As I will for all my years
