Lyrics First Aid Kit

First Aid Kit

Heavy Storm

1. I wish I could believe in something bigger

More than these trees, these winds, these oceans

I wish I could believe what they tell me

I saw, I saw, I saw my brother pack his bags and leave

We made our goodbyes and now he is settled down in the city

Where he doesnt have to be himself

R1: He used to play an untuned guitar

While he sang about me and he sung about the stars

I used to dream about another time

And now its all clear that's the only time I wish would come back

2. I wish I could hold on a little longer

Still my worried stomach and calm my hunger

I wish I could believe what they taught me

I saw, I saw, I saw, I saw an old photograph

And the picture that appeared, well it took me back

To the time when she was around

R2: She used to play that old mandolin

The moon and the sea invited her in

I wish that I had told her by then

But she knew deep down that she only wished that time would come back

*: A new day awaits me

I could be gone today

A new day awaits me

We could be here to stay

R3: We used to wait for our heavy storms

To take us away while something new would form

I wish that I could have known by then

We all know now that we're never getting back to those times
