Lee Roundtree - Hurricanes lyrics

[Intro: Grandma voicemail] Hey Damien, this is Granny calling you. I wanted to see how you doing, I ain't heard from you in a while. I hope you ain't in that bad storm up there in Texas. I'm praying that everything's alright. You take care of yourself. Love you. I just wanted to hear your voice. Love you. Take care. Bye, bye [Verse 1] The clouds start to hover As the memories cover a neglected soul You fought 'til you couldn't And you gave when you shouldn't 'til you lost control You rearranged your world To align with the swirls of this harmful storm The strong winds perhaps Caused the buildings to collapse and it left you scorned [Pre-Chorus] Round and around you go Trying to find your soul Through all the debris You spin and you spin around 'Til you're falling down Baby, why don't you leave [Chorus] Baby your love was like hurricanes You're just a hurricane Destroying what's in your path Nothing left to remain Your love was like hurricanes And it left me with nothing Now I'm under construction I guess you never loved me Thought it was meant to be But it was through before it ended And I gave you all of me But you just gave me a percentage [Verse 2] The storm starts to hit You're still taking all his sh** 'Cause you're scared to go ('cause you're scared to go) Back to being lonely all without your one and only So you take the blow (so you take the blow) You hide from all your friends And you cancel all your plans You're ashamed of you (you're ashamed of you) You love it when it rains 'cause it reflects all the pain That's sustained in you (that's sustained in you) [Pre-Chorus] Round and around you go Trying to find your soul Through all the debris You spin and you spin around 'Til you're falling down Baby, why don't you leave [Bridge] Tell me that you cared Tell me that you tried Tell me something nice But don't say that you loved me I gave all that I had Now I can't be repaired Tell 'em anything But don't say that you loved me [Chorus] (x2) Baby your love was like hurricanes You're just a hurricane Destroying what's in your path Nothing left to remain Your love was like hurricanes And it left me with nothing My heart's under construction I guess you never loved me There was a storm in Texas And that sh** got real reckless
