Dogs and Thunder John Gorka

This is “Dogs and Thunder” by one of my favorite singer/songwriters, John Gorka. His songs range from insightful and emotional, to raucous and laugh-out-loud funny. This one’s on the tender side. It’s about going through a break-up and waiting for hurt to set in. His lyrics are amazing. [I mean-They moved between hurt and hunger, served on a bed of bitterness and wonder] I hope you enjoy it. Thanks for listening.
He kissed her on the shoulder
Then he said goodbye
Watched her move away
Through the arm of the other guy
Nothing more to have
Nothing more to hold
No one there to rescue
A lonely chase
And a trail gone cold
There are doors that you walk through
That only swing one way
Once you cross the threshold
There’s nothing words can say
Can’t go home again
Can’t outrun the past
The future is water in your hands
Not a polished piece of glass
