Eye of the Hurricane

from Live Songs and Stories

The tank is full, the switch is on
the night is warm, the cops are gone
The rocket bike is on her own
It's called a hurricane
She told me once it's quite a ride
She said that there's this place inside
Where if you're moving you can hide, safe within the rain

She wants to run away
There's nowhere that she can go
Nowhere the pain won't come again
Now she can hide, hide in the pouring rain
She rides the eye of the hurricane

Tell the truth, explain to me
How you got this need for speed
She laughed and said 'it might just be the next best thing to love'
Hope is gone and she confessed
That when you lay your dream to rest
You can get what's second best but it's hard to get enough

She wants to run away
There's nowhere that she can go
Nowhere the pain wont come again
Now she can hide, hide in the pouring rain
She rides the eye of the hurricane

We saw her ride so fast last night
Racing by in a flash of light

Riding quick, the street was dark
The shiny truck she thought was parked
Had blocked her path and stopped her heart
But not the hurricane
She saw her chance to slip the trap
There's just the room to pass in back
But then it moved, it closed the gap
she never felt the pain

She wanted to run away
There's nowhere that she can go
Nowhere the pain won't come again
Now she can hide, hide in the pouring rain
She rides the eye of the hurricane

She rides the eye of the hurricane
