James – Sometimes(Lester Piggott) Lyrics

James · Laid
Rock

There's a storm outside
And the gap between crack and thunder
Crack and thunder
Is closing in, is closing in

The rain floods gutters
And makes a great sound on concrete
On a flat roof, there's a boy leaning against the wall of rain, aerial held high
Calling, "Come on, thunder! Come on, thunder!"

Sometimes
When I look deep in your eyes
I swear I can see your soul
Sometimes
When I look deep in your eyes
I swear I can see your soul

It's a monsoon
And the rain lifts lids off cars
Spinning buses like toys, stripping them to chrome
Across the bay
The waves are turning into something else
Picking up fishing boats and spewing them on the shore

The boy is hit
Lit up against the sky, like a sign
Like some neon sign
And then he crumples, drops into the gutter
Cuts strange, legs twitching
The flood swells his clothes
And delivers him on, delivers him on

Sometimes
When I look deep in your eyes
I swear I can see your soul
Sometimes
When I look deep in your eyes
I swear I can see your soul

There's four new colours in the rainbow
An old man's taking Polaroids
But all he captures is endless rain
Endless rain, endless rain
He says "Listen"
He takes my head, puts my ear to his
And I swear I can hear the sea

Sometimes
When I look in your eyes, I see your soul
Sometimes
When I look in your eyes, I see your soul
Sometimes
When I look in your eyes, I see your soul
Sometimes
When I look in your eyes, I see your soul

Sometimes (sometimes)
When I look in your eyes, I see your soul (we could reach your soul)
Sometimes (sometimes)
When I look in your eyes, I see your soul (we could reach your soul)
Sometimes (sometimes)
When I look in your eyes, I see your soul (we can touch your soul)
Sometimes (sometimes)
When I look in your eyes, I see your soul (we could reach your soul, we could reach your soul)

Sometimes
When I look in your eyes, I see your soul
Sometimes
When I look in your eyes, I see your soul
Sometimes
When I look in your eyes, I see your soul
Sometimes
When I look in your eyes, I see your soul

(Sometimes)
(When I look in your eyes, I see your soul)
(Sometimes)
(When I look in your eyes, I see your soul)
(Sometimes)
(When I look in your eyes, I see your soul)
(Sometimes)
(When I look in your eyes, I see your soul)

Sometimes
When I look in your eyes, I see your soul
Sometimes
When I look in your eyes, I see your soul
Sometimes
When I look in your eyes, I see your soul
Sometimes
When I look in your eyes, I see your soul

Sometimes
When I look in your eyes, I see your soul
Sometimes
When I look in your eyes, I see your soul
Sometimes
When I look in your eyes, I see your soul
Sometimes
When I look in your eyes, I see your soul

Sometimes
When I look in your eyes, I see your soul
Sometimes
When I look in your eyes, I see your soul
