Well I’m not the martyr
I know you think that’s what I’m trying to do
But honey I just can’t
Be the one who is lying to you
And I’m not the person
Who knows what answer is the best
But I’ll try and I’ll fight
To give you that one last chance you need
I can see it in the clouds
It’s written plain as day
The sun shines on it but you still stay
And when the thunder roars
I’ll wish I was a god
I could steal you away
Crush the storm, light the fire
That’s not gonna happen, no not today
Oh, Oh I’m not the martyr
Just the thunder in the bay
Well I’m not the letter
That comes to you in black and white
But I’ll read it to you
Sing these words to you tonight-I- ight
I might be the bearer
Of the bad news that’s a coming
But don’t kill the messenger
Don’t hurt the one who’s been with you all your life
I can see it in the clouds
It’s written plain as day
The sun shines on it but you still stay
And when the thunder roars
I’ll wish I was a god
I could steal you away
Crush the storm, light the fire
That’s not gonna happen, no not today
Oh, Oh I’m not the martyr
Just the thunder in the bay
I’ve worked so hard to warn you
But I fear I’m growing old
But you keep wishing on what you hope
If I could give you a gift
I’d give you an eagle’s eyes
And a gentle understanding… of the choice left tonight
I can see it in the clouds
It’s written plain as day
The sun shines on it but you still stay
And when the thunder roars
I’ll wish I was a god
I could steal you away
Crush the storm, light the fire
That’s not gonna happen, no not today
Oh, Oh I’m not the martyr
Just the thunder
Rolling in
On the bay
I’m just the thunder
Rolling in
I can see it in the clouds
It’s written plain as day
Oh, Oh I’m not the martyr
Oh, Oh I’m not the martyr
I’m just the thunder
Rolling in
On the bay
Wish I Was A Mermaid In Newfie
