Perfect storm at the center of my universe,
I couldn't stop it if I wanted to
Waves came crashing as if they'd all rehearsed
And the winds whispered secrets as they blew

And the clouds all parted
to let the sunshine in
with a curtsy and a bow
And it made me wonder where the hell you'd been
and where would you be going now?

Well, the calm before the storm
is a good time for some thinking
But the weatherman he let me down again
Third time's a charm (unless of course you're sinking)
We all need a lifeboat now and then

Saved again
please don't ask me how
Cue remorse and solemn vow
And it made me wonder where the hell we’ve been
and where should we be going now?

Who on earth knows where my mind goes?
When we sing it feels
just like I am all the ages I have ever been

Woke up dreaming
Living in slow motion
Staring through the wreckage at the view
No more scheming
just a cork upon the ocean
going where the tide takes me to

Born again
please don't ask me how
wounded horse or sacred cow
And it made me wonder where the hell I've been
and where would I be going now?
