[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
