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
