Lyrics Try For Thunder - Chamberlain

Try For Thunder

I haven’t smiled in a long time
But I’ve learned how to look impressed
Learned to lose the dreams I had
When I was at my best
When I was a boy on the back lawn
Faith, like a gun, I’d find
And be it loaded or not
I’d keep it at my side
This voice inside keeps saying
Congratulations on what you’ve done
On all you are
And all that you won’t become
But even when it’s hard
I guess, I’m never where I don’t belong
And I’ll get there by knowing
I’d get there all along
This life to me it’s like a try for thunder
This sky that I’m under it’s the best sky for me
I’ve learned less from daylight
Than from night threatening to leave
All along my voice goes after
What my hands cannot reach
I ran through the fog without you
Through the low hard language of rain
Afraid that if I caught
What I came for
I’d never want it again
This life to me
It’s like a try for thunder
This sky that I’m under
It says God’s been good to me
One night in the rain you set me straight
You said I have everything I need
And for every slow day in the sun
There’s two storms in between
Where I am is where you’ll find me
At the edge of many things
Hands outstretched, doing circles in the rain
Grinning like a thief
This life to me
It’s like a try for thunder
This sky that I’m under
It says God’s been good to me
