The Tornado歌词

[00:00.000] 作曲 : Adam Young
[00:00.751] It was just starting to drizzle as I walked out the door
[00:05.209] But l've delivered papers in the rain like that before
[00:09.682] Three thirty in the morning, I was happy as a lark
[00:14.145] As I grabbed my bike and rode into the dark
[00:18.720]
[00:19.148] I pedaled through the neighborhood, the weather on my mind
[00:22.909] The wind was picking up and howling louder all the time
[00:27.531] The sky churned like a cauldron and the distant thunder roared
[00:32.247] And I knew that I was in for quite а storm
[00:35.695]
[00:36.882] A little rain never hurt no one so I kept pressing on
[00:41.033] And I tried to tell myself, it's always darkest before the dawn
[00:46.427]
[00:48.154] Lightning struck an oak tree as I leapt off my bike
[00:52.303] The sirens started wailing but there was no good place to hide
[00:56.739] I knew without а doubt, there was а twister touching down
[01:01.238] So I crawled into а culvert to wait it out
[01:04.784]
[01:05.901] The little bit of courage I had left was almost gone
[01:10.335] But I tried to tell myself, it's always darkest before the dawn
[01:15.810]
[01:17.055] And then the nightmare started, it got deafeningly loud
[01:21.227] Everything fiber in me screamed out but I couldn't make a sound
[01:26.200] The whirling of а vortex, а violent carousel
[01:30.388] It sounded like a freight train was dragging me to hell
[01:34.171]
[01:53.071] And this was my prayer, "save me from this terrible nightmare"
[02:14.078]
[02:15.051] That was when I saw my family with my eyes shut real tight
[02:20.143] Would they know how much I loved them if this was how I died?
[02:24.635] No, I vowed l'd not be murdered by а monster in the sky that night
[02:33.694]
[02:36.679] But if I went home to heaven, at least that's where l'd belong
[02:41.124] Yeah I tried to tell myself, it's always darkest before the dawn
[02:46.777] So I kept hanging on
[02:56.192] I kept hanging on
[02:57.923]
[03:06.676] The shadows slowly melted as I was hunkered down
[03:11.380] Till at last the worst was over, the storm was dying out
[03:15.929] I crept out of that culvert and I went weak in the knees
[03:20.050] Cuz what I saw was a somber sight to see
[03:24.083]
[03:25.101] There was nothing but destruction and wreckage in that town
[03:29.299] Cars were upside down and houses leveled to the ground
[03:33.967] A twisted trampoline was hanging from the power lines
[03:37.576] I blinked a tear back cuz I felt lucky to be alive
[03:41.875]
[03:42.530] And that was how I learned to live when you can run but you can't hide
[03:47.405] How to feel trapped in a tunnel but come out the other side
[03:51.963] Cuz with all the stormy weather in the world, you learn to take
[03:56.999] Life one storm at a time, you don't have to be afraid
[04:01.298]
[04:03.518] And now when there's bad weather on the way, I stay calm
[04:07.828] And I keep hanging on because it's always darkest before the dawn
[04:14.782]
[04:22.665] And I keep hanging on
[04:31.410] I keep hanging on
