Lyrics Frightened By The Sound - Justin Townes Earle

Frightened By The Sound

Silence broken
Thunder roll
Followed by the bright light
From a lightning strike
Wind is pickin' up
To a low moan
Feel the pressure drop
Rain start and stop
Storm coming
No way it’s gonna miss us now
Storm coming
Don’t be frightened by the sound
Moment of silence
Uneasy still
Then come the steady rain
Hard against the window pane
But keep an eye on the river
It’s already up
There’s no need to worry yet
Let us not forget
That last time rain
Come down like this
So much was lost
We’ll never know the true cost
Storm’s coming
No way it’s gonna miss us now
Storm coming
Don’t be frightened by the sound
There’s so much at stake
How far will it go?
Only a fool would place such a bet
On which way the winds will blow
There’s no way of knowing
What the damage will be
We can’t just live on hope
We’ll never get out alone
Storm coming
No way it’s gonna miss us now
Storm coming
Don’t be frightened by the sound of it
Don’t be frightened by the sound
