Storm

A song about storms. Real ones but those inside our heads as well. My words, Ai added with my prompting for a stormy power ballad sound….

This has my Amy Innes video as a bonus. I tried to capture the rawness and power of a storm in the music, words and video.

Find it here

A twister hit the city 

And you were barely born

No place safe, nowhere snug and warm 

You cried, you cried to the shattered sky

Your mama named you Storm

Two decades down 

I found you

Alone, a fragile form

You cried, you cried to the vacant sky 

Looking for sun, you found none, Storm 

[Chorus]

You can wait it out, make a stand 

We can wait it out, Storm, take my hand 

When you think you hear God calling 

I can stop you falling 

We can wait it out together

Believe me, 

the rain won’t last forever

Storm child, you’re a tempest wild 

When the wind blows, you transform 

Your eyes, your eyes are of blue skies

But nothing moves you like a storm

[Chorus]

[Bridge]

You see the black clouds above  

You hear thunder close behind 

Though you wanna run, Storm

The Sun is hard to find. 

[Chorus]

[outro]

Silence bright and a morning clear 

That black cloud, gone where? 

On your cheek, a single tear 

Storm, 

Oh, Storm
