I’ve never been one for stormy weather
But all of these clouds are coming close
I know that you and I should probably run for cover
But let’s just wait it out and see where it goes
I need to head back to West Virginia
Down to the place my dad was born
Because I’ve been forgetting what he told me
Don’t lose your footing on this road
When I was young, the sun was shining bright as ever
But I never looked up to see where the light was from
Oh, now it feels like the sun is setting
Now I’m looking up just to see where the light has gone
I need to head back to California
Down to the place my mom was born
Because I’ve been forgetting what she told me
Son, don’t lose sight of the Lord
Now I’m sitting here in Texas
Sitting here looking up at the moon
And I know that I’ve been forgetting
That the sun is coming up soon
