the woman who was lost in the flood - terry klein lyrics

[verse 1]
i remember well when the rain came
first it felt like any other storm
bruise on my left cheek i couldn’t cover up
collar on my blouse is good and torn
he always said he did it cos he loved me
what the h*ll kind of love is that
told me that he couldn’t live without me
the way he said it made it sound like a threat

[chorus]
and the rain kept on falling
river burst its banks, still it rolls
oh to disappear ‘neath that raging wild water
my best to those i love, the rest arе on their own

[verse 2]
called me from his pickup truck in mason
said it’s not safе anymore where you are
i said man, you ain’t kidding
he said stay put for now, i’m not too far
that’s when i walked out of the backdoor
let the llano river wash his life away
left behind my wallet and that torn up blouse
they’d be searching for my body for days
[chorus]
and the rain kept on falling
river burst its banks, still it rolls
oh to disappear ‘neath that raging wild water
my best to those i love, the rest are on their own

[verse 3]
this new life, it looks good on me
if i do say so myself
n0body down here asks me where i came from
if they did, i’d say i busted out of h*ll
local news called it tragic
the woman who was lost in the flood
said she left behind a young husband
which was true enough, i guess, yes it was

[chorus]
and the rain kept on falling
river burst its banks, still it rolls
oh to disappear ‘neath that raging wild water
my best to those i love, the rest are on their own

on their own, they’re on their own
