The Storm

[Verse 1] She sits among the pieces Of broken glass and photographs Reluctantly releases The last, of what was her past It struck without a warning Or did she just ignore the signs In those dark clouds forming behind Her silver lines [Chorus] And the door it slammed like thunder And the tears they fell like rain And the warnings from her family Whirl like a hurricane Oh, she's drowning in emotions And she cannot reach the shore She's alive But, can she survive the storm [Verse 2] A broken jewel box dancer Lies in pieces down the hall She's finding out the answers Don't change, nothing at all It's time that she stopped searching For who's to blame or what went wrong The only thing for certain Is he's gone, she's got to move on [Chorus] Then a door was slammed like thunder And the tears they fall like rain And the warnings from her family Whirl like a hurricane Oh, she's drowning in emotions And she cannot reach the shore She's alive But, can she survive, the storm [Verse 3] Someday days just roll on by Without a gray cloud in the sky She keeps telling herself "I will make it on my own" And her friends They've all gone back to their lives Thinking she will be all right As she races through the night, to make it home [Chorus] And the door it slams like thunder And the tears they fall like rain And the warnings from her family Whirl like a hurricane Oh, she's drowning in emotions And she cannot reach the shore She's alive But, can she survive, the storm [Intro] She sits among the pieces Of broken glass and photographs Reluctantly releases The last, of what was her past
