Perfect Storm Lyrics - Singles - Michael Arthur

A circumstance of chance 

New steps in every dance 

In place of a romance 

A sidelong secret glance 

Has come around again 

Sands of time fall grain by grain 

Slowly filling the hourglass with pain 

A sweet refrain 

Played to tears like rain 

Her thunder shakes me to my core 

Her lightening pierces, storms roar 

Her oceans pound against my soul 

The hope to hold 

Drifts away with a kiss she stole 

On waters black as ink 

Still her love's the wreckage 

That won't let me sink 

Would I choose to stay 

Beneath skies of iron gray 

Forget about the sun, go another way 

Give up sight, forget sound 

Know no up, know no down 

To be tossed in her tides 

Till all that's left inside 

Is pride that has died 

She can see the key 

Calms the fury of her seas 

Im still here, 

Year after year 

And I wont try to reach the shore 

Her rocks and shoals cant hurt me anymore
