Jumper Cables In The Rain
©1999, Brooke Fox/Albina Music

Half-past nowhere on a highway shoulder
Runs in my nylons and mud in my heels
Hair un-braided, lipstick faded
by the heartbeat of the hazards this puzzle reveals

High school shy, school wallflowers, victims of chance
seven stranded, we’ll never make it to the dance

CHORUS:
And I don’t know how I got here
And I can’t begin to blame
But I’m left to find the answers
In jumper cables in the rain
Oh lord, I feel the power returning to my veins
Returning to my veins

The night air shocked me
And I realized how paralyzed I’d been
And I never want to feel that weak again
Something about the steam rising off the concrete
Sparked a restless revelation
Shifting me like the wind

Something plugged me into myself tonight
Turned me on to ten-thousand volts of electric life

CHORUS

And I raise my arms up
And I tip my head back
And I let the rain dance on my skin
And I breathe in
Begin again, begin.....

CHORUS

Leave the yearbook on the bookshelf
Leave that photo in the frame
I think I’ve found the answer
In jumper cables in the rain
Oh lord, I feel the power returning to my veins
Returning to my veins
