Here are the lyrics:
Love is a hurricane in a blue sky
I didn't see it coming, never knew why
All the laughter and the dreams
All the memories in between
Washed away in a steady stream.
Love is a hunger
A famine in your soul
I thought I planted beauty
But it would never grow.
Now I'm on my hands and knees
Trying to gather up my dreams
Trying to hold on to anything.
We could shake our fist in times like this
When we don't understand or we could just hold hands
(Chorus)
You and me
Me and you
Where you go I'll go too
I'm with you, I'm with you,.
'Till your heart finds a home
I won't let you feel alone,
I'm with you, I'm with you, with you.
You do your best to build a higher wall
To keep love safe from every wrecking ball
Then the doctors clearly will
See the house that love rebuilt
Guarding beauty that lives here still.
Chorus
Who can say I'm left with nothing?
When I have all of you, all of you
In the way you've always loved me.
I remember, He does too.
I didn't see it coming, never knew why
All the laughter and the dreams
All the memories in between
Washed away in a steady stream.
Love is a hunger
A famine in your soul
I thought I planted beauty
But it would never grow.
Now I'm on my hands and knees
Trying to gather up my dreams
Trying to hold on to anything.
We could shake our fist in times like this
When we don't understand or we could just hold hands
(Chorus)
You and me
Me and you
Where you go I'll go too
I'm with you, I'm with you,.
'Till your heart finds a home
I won't let you feel alone,
I'm with you, I'm with you, with you.
You do your best to build a higher wall
To keep love safe from every wrecking ball
Then the doctors clearly will
See the house that love rebuilt
Guarding beauty that lives here still.
Chorus
Who can say I'm left with nothing?
When I have all of you, all of you
In the way you've always loved me.
I remember, He does too.
Pretty, huh? It is based on the biblical figures, Ruth and Naomi.
