CRYING STORM CLOUDS

They take me to distant places
Reuniting me with familiar faces
Every night I make this journey
Upon crying storm clouds

We pass through the night sky with a faint weeping
As my body is sweating and my heart is seeping
My passage is always guaranteed
Upon crying storm clouds

Passing from the present to what was
Reliving memories of our cause
Never a night I miss this trip
Upon crying storm clouds

Tonight we’ll meet again
Don’t know if I want it to end
This passage back were my mind sends
Upon crying storm clouds

From lost friends of my youth
Come smiles and hellos
And a hearty Welcome Home from all my Bro’s
Upon crying storm clouds

Till I come back here again
Know I’ll always be your friend
Save a place for us all my good men
Upon crying storm clouds
