  • I'm telling you I went dry
    I couldn't do it anymore
    Told myself that I was fine
    It was something that I'd just ignore
    That I'd feel a weight lift up
    The moment that I followed through
    But I guess I fooled myself
    Cause I never really wanted to

    Oh I knew
    That even if I kept you in the dark
    It would never do
    Because it only takes a spark

    I'm standing in the pouring rain
    I feel it like a hurricane
    A photograph is all it takes
    But I know I shouldn't let it
    And the memory is rising fast
    It's seeping in through every crack
    Oh funny how it all comes back
    When you're trying to forget it

    Here comes the hurricane
    Here comes the hurricane

    Oh when I cut you off
    It was something that I had to do
    You can try to push it down
    But it's always going to follow you
    And yeah if you close your eyes
    It doesn't mean you fell asleep
    Oh and I could keep you out
    But you're never really gonna leave

    Oh I knew
    Even if I kept you in the dark
    It would never do
    Because it only takes a spark

    I'm standing in the pouring rain
    I feel it like a hurricane
    A photograph is all it takes
    But I know I shouldn't let it
    And the memory is rising fast
    It's seeping in through every crack
    Oh funny how it all comes back
    When you're trying to forget it

    Here comes the hurricane
    Here comes the hurricane

    Everybody knows I didn't want it to end
    Everybody knows I didn't want it to end

    I'm standing in the pouring rain
    I feel it like a hurricane
    A photograph is all it takes
    But I know I shouldn't let it
    And the memory is rising fast
    It's seeping in through every crack
    Oh funny how it all comes back
    When you're trying to forget it

    (I feel it like a hurricane)
    Here comes the hurricane
