James Gillespie - Tornado

You walked in slow.
The air changed then.
Felt a rush of wind.
A strange, sweet spin.
It felt so right.
But the sky turned dark.
Ignored all signs.
Left my lonely mark.

I see the shape.
The funnel forms.
It pulls me near.
Through dangerous storms.
This feeling's high.
I can't resist.
A blinding rush.
A fatal kiss.

You are a tornado.
Spinning out of control.
Tearing up my soul.
Category Five.
This love can't thrive.
It’s a danger zone.
I must stand alone.
Watch the wreckage fall.
I’m escaping it all.

The damage done.
Everything shattered.
Don’t care at all.
Nothing else mattered.
Your touch is fire.
A gasoline smell.
I crave the danger.
Trapped in your hell.
My friends all plead.
"Just let him go."
I couldn't leave.
The passion grows.

I see the shape.
The funnel forms.
It pulls me near.
Through dangerous storms.
This feeling's high.
I can't resist.
A blinding rush.
A fatal kiss.

You are a tornado.
Spinning out of control.
Tearing up my soul.
Category Five.
This love can't thrive.
It’s a danger zone.
I must stand alone.
Watch the wreckage fall.
I’m escaping it all.

It felt like magic.
Now it's only debris.
I need to rebuild.
Just for me.
The storm must pass.
I see the blue sky.
Gotta cut the cord.
I need to fly high.
This destructive force.
I’m letting it go.
I deserve calm.
I need to grow.

You are a tornado.
Spinning out of control.
Tearing up my soul.
Category Five.
This love can't thrive.
It’s a danger zone.
I must stand alone.
Watch the wreckage fall.
I’m escaping it all.

Inside I hurt.
You made me a home
I did it through the dance
The destruction is done.
A new life has begun.
I closed the door.
I won’t look for more.
