Thunder of her love: (November 19, 2003)
Copyright 2003 Thumper Productions:
Samantha reminded me of things we all share.
-------------------------------
She was only 17
Too
young
To
start a family
But she met the boy she loved
And
the only thing to do
Was
go her way
It didn’t matter
That her family
didn’t
Know him
It didn’t matter
That
her friends
Said
he was wrong
It wouldn’t have mattered
If
the sky had opened wide
And
said “hey, no way”
All that mattered
Was
the thunder
Of
her love
------
A year or so went by
They
had a home
They
had a family
She had the boy she loved
And everything
Was
going her way.
It didn’t matter
That
they struggled
To
make ends meet
It didn’t matter
They
didn’t have
A
brand new car
It wouldn’t have mattered
If
the sky had opened wide
And
said “hey, no way”
All that mattered
Was
the thunder
Of
their love
----- bridge
And then they grew apart
Just a little at the start
The beating of their hearts
Found another drum
--
The distance widened slowly
Although they both said “no way”
We’ll let it tear our love apart
--
But the love we have today
Is finding it’s own way
So you can never say
What will be
--
And so their time as one
Became their time of two
And ‘tho they’d loved each other
There was nothing left to do
It was through(4)
----------- verse
And now she’s 24
Too
young to be
A
single mother
The dogs come sniffing round
Don’t
want her love
But
they want more
She holds her children
Warm
against the winter
She holds her children
Safe against the
storm
It doesn’t matter
When
the sky, it opens wide
And
says “hey, no way”
All that matters
Is
the thunder
Of
their love
