The Tornado

Turn out the lights, long to dream of you - longing to dream of you

Since you’ve gone, everything’s wrong, tumbling... in free-fall

I can see you just beyond reach, 

I can sense you through the thinning veil somehow, through the veil somehow

I can feel it as I dream, there’s something always getting in the way ‘til now 

Between us, like I’m stuck in your vortex

(Spinning like the way you once danced, sinking deep into your rhythm)

I’m seeking out your soul, the half that makes me whole

It’s like I’m stuck in your vortex

(I can reach out, try to grasp it, lose myself within your rhythm)

I’m seeking out your soul, I summon the tornado

In the eye, there is calm inside the storm

(There’s only stillness here inside) 

With you

(There’s only stillness here inside)

Though I try to, there’s nothing I can do

(There’s only stillness here inside, here in the core of all I hide)

And all alone I take shelter from unknown

There’s nothing more that I can do

There’s nothing more that I can do - take cover

Until the ceiling is torn from all meaning

And you’re left with just the wreckage of it all

Crouch below ground, cover your feelings

I close my eyes and I dream of you, let me dream of you

Since you’re gone, the whole world’s wrong, then

There’s nothing more that I can do

There’s nothing more that I can do

There’s nothing more that I can do

There’s only one thing … I can still dream of you.
