Only the Thunder

All I want is someone to believe in
 But who to believe is hard to define
 When some say the future is unwritten
 Some say the simple things in life are the best
 When all is dark and dusty down the tracks
 And all paths from exile have roadblocks on all points
 Saying "No, No way out of here, go back from where you came from"
 And some say when you're down you fight the hardest
 Some tighten the belt others let go
 Someone once said, if you don't ask you don't receive
 Someone showed me that written down in the back of a book
 And as I reach out and see my life unfold
 I tell you this because I truly believe in it
 Ask and you'll receive my friend
 Seek and you shall find
 Oh won't you help me now.
 Only the thunder knows
 What drives a man in his darkest throes
 Fortune and poverty
 They're oh so close, oh so close
 ONLY THE THUNDER
 And some say everything must have a reason
 Some say everything will one day soon come to pass
 Some say that's life, that's the way the cards fall
 Someone once said the answer's blowin' in the wind
 And the word I seek to answer all my questions
 Is written down on everything I see
 It's in the words written on the subway walls
 It's filling the concert halls.
 Only the thunder knows
 What drives a man in his darkest throes
 Fortune and poverty
 They're oh so close, oh so close
 ONLY THE THUNDER
 I know you're out there in this world my friend
 I know I'll find you, I know I'll find you
 I'll be searching all night through the thunder and rain
 One day I'll find you, one day I'll find you
 Oh won't you help me now
 Only the thunder knows
 What drives a man in his darkest throes
 Fortune and poverty
 They're oh so close, oh so close
 ONLY THE THUNDER
 ONLY THE THUNDER
