You show up like a hurricane, all hungry-eyed and weather-stained

The clock forgets to tick and I the same 



I died the day you disappeared, so why would you be welcome here?

Ride the wind that brought you back away



No you can't come in

No you can't come in



I cannot stop my rebel hands from pulling out the pots and pans 

I left you in the cold until you shook



You're gentle now, but I recall

Both tender fire and bitter squall

A history so deep it hurts to look



No you can't come in

No you can't come in

No you can't 

You can't come in



If the sea should swallow up my house

I will turn my rooftop inside out and the wind will be wailing

But I will be sailing faster



Oh the elements I do not fear but I fall apart when you appear 

Cos you are the greatest

The greatest disaster



If the sea should swallow up my house

I will turn my rooftop inside out and the wind will be wailing

But I will be sailing faster
