I hope you are feeling better now
I hope you got my letter how
Is my stormy weather now
This ain't gonna change

It would be like everyone
Pretending there is nothing wrong
Remember when we walked and talk
Cause it never rained

[Chorus]
And it needed more than love
And love is more than life
And I want those stars above
To shine this night

Feeling better wonder why
Acting that you laugh and cry
Eclipsing early summer sky
Somethings never change

[Chorus]

You want it you got it
There's nothing is chained down
You need it
I'll steel it
Just put your name down
I'll put my name down

I hope you are feeling better now
I hope you got my letter how
Is my stormy weather now

It had to be like everyone
Pretending there is nothing wrong
Remember when we walked and talk
Cause it never rained
It ever clog my spring

[Chorus]

You want it you got it
There's nothing is chained down
You need it
I'll steel it
Just put your name down
I'll put my name down

You want it you got it
Now I know it is to you I'm bound
You need it
God speed it
Just put your name down
I'll put my name down

How's the stormy weather now
