Lyrics

HURRICANE SEASON
C 2005 RJ Shapiro



1) Better batten down the hatches
It?s starting to blow real good
The wind just made a hell of a catch
Better cover the windows with wood
It?s gonna rain real hard
Gonna rain for a real long time
And the strangest part
Is that I?m walking in the sunshine

CH: And its hurricane season
In my life
In my heart
Let?s go back to the start
(And it?s tearing me apart)

2) I was so bright
Couldn?t get me to evacuate
To embrace the storm seemed right
Romanticize that it was fate
The way out got blocked
There was no where left to go
I found my heart in hock
And the wind blew through my soul
CH:





BR: Never seen a season so long
Nor one quite so bad
Where everything went from right to wrong
From ecstatic to pathetically bad

3) All kinds of upheaval
Don?t know where I?m standing
Not like it?s good or it?s evil
Nature can be so demanding
Gotta ride it out
Hope to get to the other side
No matter how I twist and shout
At the rising of the tide

CH:

4) I prefer the storms
That are named for women
If this is truly gonna be the norm
I?d just as soon go out swimmin?
It?s just the season
It?s a hurricane
Never mind sense or reason
It?s the storm that is to blame

CH:
