Beautiful Hurricane - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

Well, I never saw colors like the ones that I saw in you

All your pretty mixed-up blues

I was on my way home, I was comin' from Baton Rouge

Never counted on the love that I fell into

I loved your sky and I loved your name

I loved your sun and I loved your rain

My beautiful hurricane

Well, the wind was blowin' my thoughts aroun and I couldn't sleep

So I followed the music down to a bar on the beach

And I saw you there with summer hair and golden skin

And you said stay a while and so I did

I loved your sky, I loved your name

I loved your sun and I loved your rain

My beautiful hurricane

You said, "You must bе lost," I said, "I guess I was"

And one last call lasted all weekеnd long

And this mornin' when the still of the dawn rolled in

I knew that you had gone

Sometimes you wish the world would stop, but it never does

And time, like a wave, came crashin' down on us

Now I'm gettin' on a road that'll get me back to my old life

Back to my black and white

I loved your sky and I loved your name

I loved your sun and I loved your rain

My beautiful hurricane
