The leaves on the tree are turnin´ inside out From the Great White North there´s a big black cloud
Run for shelter if you can There´s a storm in the heartland
We made it through the flood of ´93 But this is gonna be the death of me I can´t hide the tears of a desperate man There´s a storm in the heartland
She´s leavin´ me just like a restless wind And I can see my world is comin´ to an end Like the sounds of thunder empty words ring out again There´s a storm in the heartland There´s a storm in the heartland
The love she gave was like a breath of spring Sweet and pure as a mountain stream I couldn´t see the danger close at hand
There´s a storm in the heartland
She´s leavin´ me just like a restless wind And I can see my world is comin´ to an end Like the sounds of thunder empty words ring out again There´s a storm in the heartland There´s a storm in the heartland
