After The Hurricane

After the hurricane, after the wind and rain

When we lost everything, after the hurricane

It was not the driving rain

That let our love go down the drain

It was not the howlin' wind

That blew away the hopes I planned

After the hurricane, after the wind and rain

When we lost everything, after the hurricane

We were sheltered from the storm

In what we thought was safe and warm

We survived the risin' tide

But there's no place that we can hide

After the hurricane, after the wind and rain

When we lost everything, after the hurricane

Things were scattered, things got tossed

But that's not what we had lost

It's a way of marking time

To fit the reason to the rhyme

After the hurricane, after the wind and rain

When we lost everything, after the hurricane

After the hurricane, after the wind and rain

When we lost everything, after the hurricane
