They met in a hurricane Standing in the shelter out of the rain She tucked a note into his hand Later on they took his car Drove on down where the beaches are He wrote her name in the sand Never even let go of her hand
Somehow they stayed that way For those 5 days in May Made all the stars around them shine Funny how you can look in vain Living on nerves and such sweet pain The loneliness that cuts so fine To find the face you've seen a thousand times
Sometimes the world begins To set you up on your feet again And ohh it wipes the tears from your eyes How will you ever know The way that circumstances go Oh its going to hit you by surprise But I know my past You were there In everything I've done You are the one
Looking back its hard to tell Why they stood while others fell Spend your life working it out All I know is one cloudy day They both just ran away Rain on the windshield heading South Ohh she loved the lines around his mouth
Sometimes the world begins To set you up on your feet again And ohh it wipes the tears from your eyes How will you ever know The way that circumstances go Ohh its going to hit you by surprise But I know my past You were there In everything I've done You are the one.
