[Intro]
One, two
[Verse 1]
They met in a hurricane
Standing in the shelter out of the rain
She tucked a note into his hand
Later on, they took his car
Drove on down where the beaches are
He wrote her name in the sand
He never even let go of her hand
[Verse 2]
Somehow they stayed that way
For those five days in May
Made all the stars around them shine
It's funny how you can look in vain
Livin' on nerves and such sweet pain
A loneliness that cuts so fine
Find the face you've seen a thousand times
[Chorus]
Sometimes the world begins
Sets you up on your feet again
And oh, it wipes the tears from your eyes
And how will you ever know
The way that circumstances go?
Always gonna hit you by surprise
Well, I know my past, you were there
In everything I've done, you are the one
One, two
[Verse 1]
They met in a hurricane
Standing in the shelter out of the rain
She tucked a note into his hand
Later on, they took his car
Drove on down where the beaches are
He wrote her name in the sand
He never even let go of her hand
[Verse 2]
Somehow they stayed that way
For those five days in May
Made all the stars around them shine
It's funny how you can look in vain
Livin' on nerves and such sweet pain
A loneliness that cuts so fine
Find the face you've seen a thousand times
[Chorus]
Sometimes the world begins
Sets you up on your feet again
And oh, it wipes the tears from your eyes
And how will you ever know
The way that circumstances go?
Always gonna hit you by surprise
Well, I know my past, you were there
In everything I've done, you are the one
