Oh June, you know you're gorgeous when you rain
So crack the sky wide open
And I'll let you wash me away
'Cause I got this achin' in my bones
Grandmothers' gift, it lets me know
Just when the weather is going to turn
But I still stay soaked to the bone
With your lead weight heart and your honeysuckle eyes
Poetry typed into thin little lines
Kept close to your chest
Would you still roll my bones when the slow dance is over?
I'm all blackened lungs and long, long drives
It's you and the blues and the radio tonight
Would you still need my love when the blues are over?
When it's you and the radio
I watched a storm swallow the high planes
While the band kept on playin'
I fell in love with her lonesome
And I know we're both the unfortunate kind
I still won't wash that black shirt
The smell of calm before the rain
Breath deep, bitter sweet into my chest
With your lead weight heart and your honeysuckle eyes
Poetry typed into thin little lines
Kept close to your chest
Would you still roll my bones when the slow dance is over?
I'm all blackened lungs and long, long drives
It's you and the blues and the radio tonight
Would you still need my love when the blues are over?
When it's you and the radio
It's always been you, and the radio
