lyrics
Trouble speaks
in a voice that creaks
but you hear the storm
she’s inviting
Calling rain
to relieve the pain,
wash her soul again
from the fighting
She has been your good luck charm
Your four leaf clover
Though she’s only done you harm,
you’ll go back again,
a thousand times over
Trouble cries
like a river roars
First it rains, then pours
‘till you drown, drown
in her blood,
in her eyes of mud,
'till her rivers flood
Your old town
All those things
you’d never say
she is standing, naked
shouting
'till you break and walk away,
but you will always know,
she was never, ever, doubting
She has been your good luck charm
your four leaf clover
Though she’s only done you harm
you’ll go back again
a thousand times over
in a voice that creaks
but you hear the storm
she’s inviting
Calling rain
to relieve the pain,
wash her soul again
from the fighting
She has been your good luck charm
Your four leaf clover
Though she’s only done you harm,
you’ll go back again,
a thousand times over
Trouble cries
like a river roars
First it rains, then pours
‘till you drown, drown
in her blood,
in her eyes of mud,
'till her rivers flood
Your old town
All those things
you’d never say
she is standing, naked
shouting
'till you break and walk away,
but you will always know,
she was never, ever, doubting
She has been your good luck charm
your four leaf clover
Though she’s only done you harm
you’ll go back again
a thousand times over
