[Verse 1]
The sea, it swells like a sore head
And the night, it is aching
Two lovers lie with no sheets on their bed
And the day it is breaking
[Pre-Chorus 1]
On rainy days we'd go swimming out
On rainy days, swimming in the sound
On rainy days we'd go swimming out
[Chorus]
You're in my mind all of the time
I know that's not enough
If the sky can crack there must be someway back
For love and only love
Electrical storm
Electrical storm
Baby, don't cry
[Verse 2]
Car alarm won't let you back to sleep
You're kept awake dreaming someone else's dream
Coffee is cold but it'll get you through
Compromise, that's nothing new to you
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Let's see colors that have never been seen
Let's go places no one else has been
[Chorus]
You're in my mind all of the time
I know that's not enough
Well, if the sky can crack there must be someway back
To love and only love
Electrical storm
Electrical storm
Electrical storm
Baby, don't cry
[Verse 3]
It's hot as hell, honey, in this room
Sure hope the weather will break soon
The air is heavy, heavy as a truck
We need the rain to wash away our bad luck
[Bridge]
Hey!
Hey!
[Chorus]
Well if the sky can crack there must be some way back
To love and only love
Electrical storm
Electrical storm
Electrical storm
Baby, don't cry
Baby, don't cry
Baby, don't cry
Baby, don't cry
The sea, it swells like a sore head
And the night, it is aching
Two lovers lie with no sheets on their bed
And the day it is breaking
[Pre-Chorus 1]
On rainy days we'd go swimming out
On rainy days, swimming in the sound
On rainy days we'd go swimming out
[Chorus]
You're in my mind all of the time
I know that's not enough
If the sky can crack there must be someway back
For love and only love
Electrical storm
Electrical storm
Baby, don't cry
[Verse 2]
Car alarm won't let you back to sleep
You're kept awake dreaming someone else's dream
Coffee is cold but it'll get you through
Compromise, that's nothing new to you
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Let's see colors that have never been seen
Let's go places no one else has been
[Chorus]
You're in my mind all of the time
I know that's not enough
Well, if the sky can crack there must be someway back
To love and only love
Electrical storm
Electrical storm
Electrical storm
Baby, don't cry
[Verse 3]
It's hot as hell, honey, in this room
Sure hope the weather will break soon
The air is heavy, heavy as a truck
We need the rain to wash away our bad luck
[Bridge]
Hey!
Hey!
[Chorus]
Well if the sky can crack there must be some way back
To love and only love
Electrical storm
Electrical storm
Electrical storm
Baby, don't cry
Baby, don't cry
Baby, don't cry
Baby, don't cry
