This is the story of the Old Man Todd
cnd the mystery around his madness
clways said it was a hit from god
I think it was a life of sadness
Never spoke of it for 50 years
The town knew him as a quiet spirit
Wife died in a lightning strike He wished he could have been right near it
Pleasant weather
Day after day
Beg for storm clouds
To come and take him away
Meet god
cnd ask why
He was spared
cnd she died
My grandfather knew the Old Man Todd
When they were kids in a house for foster
Sang a hymn on his wedding day
cnd watched him disappear when he lost her
Still reclusive after 50 years
Still hoping she can somehow hear him
Flying kites at the end of the road
Still wishing she could be right near him
Pleasant weather
Day after day
Beg for storm clouds
To come and take him away
Meet god
cnd ask why
He was spared
cnd she died
Hid her necklace in the chimney top
It got struck and shattered brightly
Fireball killed the Old Man Todd But some say they still see him in the lightning
