Lyrics
Summertime came early
April of one year
With a stranger on his jogging path
Faint music in his ear
She’d driven up from Memphis
She was afraid to fly
John Hiatt in her headset
And Graceland in her eyes
He felt caught up by a storm of the heart
First it drew them together . . . then it took him apart
Whirlwind was the concept
Rebound was his game
He felt like he had nothing left
But he tumbled just the same
A sailboat by the lakefront
Starlight on the pier
Certain whispered somethings
With daylight drawing near
Captured by a storm of the heart
First it threw them together . . . then it took him apart
Messages unanswered
A turning of the leaves
A transfer to some golden state
A heart pinned on a sleeve
She swore that she would keep in touch
She promised that she’d try
I need you on my buddy list -
But I’m still afraid to fly
Battered by a storm of the heart
First it threw them together . . . then it took him apart
Shattered by a storm of the heart
First it blew them together . . . then it took him apart
