Tornado Alley

You and I are two of a kind

Two restless spirits of the same mind

We know about the risks and yet we stay

We're brave or crazy or stubborn that way



When you live your life

In the shadow of a whirlwind

It might just come back again

I'll hold on to you

You hold on to me



And we'll stand our ground on Tornado Alley

Old ones talk about the one is 43

It blew through town unexpectedly



A little girl found cryin' down by the mill run

And to this day nobody knows where she came from

Chorus: When you live your life

In the shadow of a whirlwind

It might just come back again

I'll hold on to you

You hold on to me



And we'll stand our ground on Tornado Alley



Now Everyone got some story of narrow escape

Won by luck, fate or grace

You can run for cover, but you cannot hide

The only safe place is one that you hold inside

It's a misfit a wild card it's living in your backyard

It hears no voice but it's own

There's just some things that you just can't tame

Some mysteries you'll never call by name



When you live your life

In the shadow of a whirlwind

It might just come back again

I'll hold on to you

You hold on to me



And we'll stand our ground on Tornado Alley

Chorus: When you live your life

In the shadow of a whirlwind

It might just come back again

I'll hold on to you

You hold on to me



And we'll stand our ground on Tornado Alley
