The Shelter Of Storms

You always had the gift of speed, you'd disappear without a trace
 It all depended on the need and on the pain you could not face
 So, you would leave the home you'd found
 Pack it up without delay
 Cut your losses, blow that town
 And tomorrow was another day
 All the years and all the miles
 Maybe you lost track of time
 I look back now only once in awhile
 My memory just wants to blur the lines
 Cause you know me, I just can't change
 I greet the sun and find it strange
 To watch you run for the shelter of storms
 For the shelter of storms
 Now where are you out in the world, searching for a little grace
 Searching for a precious pearl, wisdom from some future place
 You let me go without a wave, I noticed that and nothing more
 I guess I'm going to my grave wondering what it all was for
 All the years and all the miles, it's so hard keeping track of time
 Do you think of me every once in awhile
 When the rain lets up and the sun can shine
 Just a little peace and quiet for a change
 I still greet the sun and find it strange
 To watch you run for the shelter of storms
 For the shelter of storms
 Roll back the years, subtract the miles
 And see what's left for you to find
 All the battles all the trials, you can't be free till you leave behind
 Your bitter heart, but you can't change
 You curse the sun and pray for rain
 And always run for the shelter of storms
 For the shelter of storms
