Lyrics for Song: Heartbreak Hurricane
Lyrics for Album: Country Gentleman [Epic] [1998]
(Jim Rushing - Larry Cordle)
A mighty clap of thunder,
Shook the shutters on my heart.
She had me eatin' from her hand,
The first night in the dark.
I did not see the danger,
Not 'til she blew in,
'Til she left me shakin' like a dry leaf,
In a high lonesome wind.
Heartbreak hurricane.
She's gone but not forgotten,
Lord, I still call her name.
Despite the devastation,
Sweet memories remain.
In the wake of a heartbreak hurricane.
--- Instrumental ---
I know it may sound crazy,
But every now and then,
I have a yearning that someday,
She'll blow my way again
I know her name spells trouble,
And I know my heart's at stake,
For a chance to win her love,
It's a chance I'm glad to take.
Heartbreak hurricane,
She's gone but not forgotten,
Lord, I still call her name.
Despite the devastation,
Sweet memories remain,
In the wake of a heartbreak hurricane.
--- Instrumental ---
Despite the devastation,
Sweet memories remain,
In the wake of a heartbreak hurricane.
In the wake of a heartbreak hurricane.
Hurricane, hurricane...
