The Perfect Storm is gathering dust
It falls into the cracks where your memories are lost
The drifting leaves slip down the bank
Past the sticks and stones that broke your heart
You see her face in every cloud
The foolish wind is laughing at you right out loud
But make a wish and hold me close
I'm dancing in the dark like a holy ghost
It's moments like this we long to resist
It's a rodeo ride but you know you're alive
Hey blood brother you can try to run for cover
In your flimsy disguise I'm not buying your lies
Hey blood brother you're the one I want to smother
With my kisses all night in your arms
Oh you're the Perfect Storm
That holy grail is crumbling rust
It smudges out the footprints that led you to the bluff
Make a wish and hold my hand
We'll be dancing in the dark to the promised land
It's moments like this we dare to submit
It's a rodeo ride but you know you're alive
Hey blood brother you can try to run for cover
In your flimsy disguise I'm not buying your lies
Hey blood brother you're the one I want to smother
With my kisses all night in your arms
Ah ah ah you're the perfect storm
Hey blood brother you can try to run for cover
In your flimsy disguise I'm not buying your lies
Hey blood brother you're the one I want to smother
With my kisses all night in your arms
