Well, I never saw colors like the ones that I saw in you
All your pretty mixed-up blues
I was on my way home
I was coming from Baton Rouge
Never counted on the love
That I fell into

I loved your sky
And I loved your name
I loved your sun
And I loved your rain
My beautiful hurricane

Well, the wind was blowing my thoughts around
And I couldn't sleep
So I followed the music down
To a bar on the beach
And I saw you there with summer hair
And golden skin
And you said, "Stay a while,"
And so I did

I loved your sky
And I loved your name
I loved your sun
And I loved your rain
My beautiful hurricane

You said, "You must be lost,"
I said, "I guess I was."
And one last call lasted all weekend long
And this morning when
The still of the dawn rolled in
I knew that you had gone

Sometimes you wish the world would stop
But it never does
And time like a wave
Came crashing down on us
Now I'm getting on a road
That'll get me back to my old life
Back to my black and white

I loved your sky
And I loved your name
I loved your sun
And I loved your rain
My beautiful hurricane
My beautiful hurricane
