lyrics

You’re the storm
without any warning
Though I was listening for the bell

You rolled into town
like the union pacific
I should have been scared as hell

But I wasn’t afraid
To stand in your way
you were barreling down
but you were the chance....I was willing to take

CHORUS
Well you were the thunder
That ran through my veins
And here in the silence
You're shaking my faith
I'm left with the notion
That a woman like you...ain't easy to find

I should have known
on the day that you found me
that our moments would be precious and few

I would have made it
My lifes final mission
to never let go of you

But one never knows
when there’s luck’s gonna change
I was a boy
and I think looking back now...you were my fate
