I knew when she blew in she wouldn't stay Every now and then God makes one that way A red head, wild child with storms in her eyes I knew I'd never be the same That's the thing about a hurricane She's all lightning and wind and rain Get too close and you're swept away Better hold on till it breaks 'Cause it's a hell of a ride if you can just survive the pain But that's the thing about a hurricane She said she was running from her past And every breath she stole felt like my last Her kiss told me better get out of here But I was too far gone to care That's the thing about a hurricane She's all lightning and wind and rain Get too close and you're swept away Better hold on till it breaks 'Cause it's a hell of a ride if you can just survive the pain But that's the thing about a hurricane Even in blue skies there ain't no forgettin' Is it any wonder they name 'em after women That's the thing about a hurricane She's all lightning and wind and rain Get too close and you're swept away Better hold on till it breaks 'Cause it's a hell of a ride if you can just survive the pain But that's the thing about a hurricane
