Eye Of A Hurricane

(album: Eye Of A Hurricane - 1984)

You're the eye of a hurricane, the calm within a storm
When the day is done you're the midnight sun
I can run to, to keep me warm
You're the eye of a hurricane, a beacon in the night
When the whistle blows till the rooster crows
I know you're gonna do me right, yeah

Stuck out on the bay bridge creeping through the fog
It's a dog eat dog day
Working on the south end, patching up holes
That the winter's gonna wash away
And when the boss man hollers, "Quitting time!"
I'll be on my way, come rain or shine
To those Tampa lights calling me across the bay

You're the eye of a hurricane, the calm within a storm
When the day is done you're the midnight sun
I can run to, to keep me warm
You're the eye of a hurricane, a beacon in the night
When the whistle blows till the rooster crows
I know you're gonna do me right, yeah

Talking to the bank man, trying to get a loan
Got to keep away the wolf pack
Stopping by the junkyard, looking for a part
To rejeuvenate the Pontiac
And that dark cloud keeps on hanging 'round
Lord, the tide comes up, when the chips are down
But I got your love to help me get the blue skies back

You're the eye of a hurricane, the calm within a storm
When the day is done you're the midnight sun
I can run to, to keep me warm
You're the eye of a hurricane, a beacon in the night
When the whistle blows till the rooster crows
I know you're gonna do me right, yeah
