lyrics

It started out cool but it got really hot.
She had her glasses on. My place I forgot.
Dark blue jeans with a red, long-sleeved tee.
She was reading my mind and challenging me.
What could she find?
Who did I want her to be?
Nothing made much sense from what she looked like. . .

She had her sneakers on and her sleeves rolled up.
She was getting some sugar for the coffee in her cup.
I was staring cause I couldn't let it go.
She glanced back at me. Was she putting on a show?
Would she stay or leave? Well I just had to know.
I felt something inside and remembered this refrain:

Watch out for tornadoes!

Just like a movie, it happened so fast.
We made a connection when she could have passed.
Something was stirring and driving my fear.
She got close to me and whispered in my ear,
"Why don't we grab the check so we can get on outta here?”
Before I knew it we were on the road.

Passenger seat: she won't quit.
I forgot. How could I forget?
She wound me up and let me spin.
I thought I’d start over and begin again.
Time had passed. She made me turn.
How can I change if I cannot learn?
I felt something inside and remembered this refrain:

Watch out for tornadoes!

Open road: all alone.
Empty load, no telephone.
I see the stars and I breathe the air.
How could my life have such little care?
Will there be another love? Will this life be fair?
I feel something inside and remember this refrain:

Watch out for tornadoes!

George Fetner (and the Strays) image

George Fetner (and the Strays) Columbia, South Carolina

His guises have included stormy Britfolk songwriter (Some Things We’ll Change) and avant-garde composer (Beneath the Ice). But Fetner seems most natural fronting The Strays, a rangy and loose-limbed rock ‘n’ roll ensemble that’s built for a good time: Swirling Hammond swells, greasy Tom Petty-isms, bubbly pep — these are the calling cards of a songwriter built to bridge crowds. edited, Free Times ... more
