On the day that we left
The neighborhood heart skipped a beat
Oh the trees folded up and they shook as we drove down the street
I said to myself we're finally getting away,
When we come back I know that they'll all look the same
Now let's go to our city
And we'll change over night
We won't think about leaving
Oh why would we, it's too good a time
A hurricane hit
While we were missing
Oh, can anybody tell me where the damage is
On the day that we left the phones and the power were down
Oh the wind doubled up and it slammed every door in the town
You cried and you screamed, you played faith in the war
When it was done the magic had left with the storm
Oh we moved to our city
And we changed over night
We won't think about leaving
Now why would we it's too good a time?
A hurricane hit
While we were missing
Oh can anybody tell me where the damage is?
Above our waistlines and beneath my skin
Your not afraid to dig those fingernails in
We don't need our childhood
I'm so sure now I was there
By the time the winds have erased us
Oh I may as well have lived here with you if anywhere
A hurricane hit
While we were missing
Oh can anybody tell me where the damage is
Above our waistline and beneath my skin
Shes not afraid to dig those fingernails in
