Leather Jacket

She shivers because of the extreme cold It’s misting rain out of the sky today She tries to be real strong and oh so bold But she’s still shaking here in every way The weather looks to be this way all day We’ve been together all throughout the years There are some times thunder heightens her fears Moments like this brings us closer as one Jacket’s on her shoulder as it endears May the storm leave, not to make us undone
