[Verse 1:]

I knew when she blew in she wouldn't stay

Every now and then God makes one that way

Red-haired wild child with storms in her eyes

I knew I'd never be the same

[Chorus:]

That's the thing about a hurricane

She's all lightnin', 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

That's the thing about a hurricane

[Verse 2:]

She said she was a runnin' from her past

And every breath she stole felt like my last

And her kiss told me, 'Better get on out of there, '

But I was too far gone to care

[Chorus:]

That's the thing about a hurricane

She's all lightnin', 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

That's the thing about a hurricane

[Verse 3:]

Even in blue skies, there ain't no forgettin'

Is it any wonder they name 'em after women?

[Chorus:]

That's the thing about a hurricane

She's all lightnin', 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

That's the thing about a hurricane
