The only one I love, she was a superstar
The only one I love, she was a superstar
The only one I love, she was a superstar, oh

I dream a dream that can't come true
I can never be with her, I dream a dream that can't come true, oh
The only one I love, she was a superstar, oh
If I was a whirlwind, I could weep her heart away, yeah yeah yeah

Oh I am, a weak heart, I am a weak heart
A weak heart to break and a lost love to take, a lost love to take, oh
I was a whirlwind and she, she was a superstar, oh
The only one I love, the only one I love, oh

every city got an artery where the blood breaks down
an avenue or a boulevard and a boy who wears a crown
indigant live styles mplies simply lack of means
dogmatical authoritarians dictate the cities remains

a promise
to go to heaven wont put salvation in sight

Whirlwind is coming down on me

when the factory shut down so did the place he lived
blood money for junk bonds by a white collar fugitive
all the tax free insentives ain't going to help him now
generations of job security gone out like the horse and plow

a promise
to go to heaven won't put salvation in sight

Whirlwind is coming down on me

my old man worked his troubled life in a nowhere dead end
he drank the pain away i'll be damned if that's me having my dreams robbed
the working class carries a country that has been rotting inside for years
the rigs cuffed my old man in the front yard i saw through my eyes of tears
a promise to go to heaven wont put salvation in sight

Whirlwind is coming down on me

(Ferry/Manzanera)

May Day
Cut down to size again
What then
When less is more my friend
I'll change
Let me start again
Disguise
It's too weird to explain
Why I'll
Always call your name
Adieu; with you
I could be anything
That I want to be
Whirlwind
Wildfire and driving rain
Wheels spin
Bowl me over hurricane
Whirlwind
Crack your cheeks and blow
Me Far
So far
How far
Is Shangri-la from here
And is it this way?
There she blows
Tear me down tornado
Whirlpool
Drag me to the deeps below
Whirlwind
Will a wildcat strike be tame?
Earthquake
Shake me to my feet again
As crosswords go you neeed
A fatal clue I fear
This case is closed
Elementally, my dear.
Beware
Whirlwind

Talking to God
Hearing what he wants
He moves in violence
I stand in silence

Who can question You, who can fathom You?
In your presence, who can stand?
Worlds spin around and kings crumble down
There's no escape what You­ve planned

Winds approaching, clouds are forming
God in his power
Is swirling around me
Calling me, and you know my name
So jump in or be taken, yea I can't
Run long enough, or go far enough
To escape the screaming rain

It's alright
It's alright
Jump in the whirlwind
I'm letting go [repeat]

My world's at stake
I want to break
Stop the striving
Start the dying
I'm thrown into it
It's so imminent
There's no arguing what You say
I gotta keep fanning it, I keep fanning it
I keep fanning the fire to flames

It's alright
It's alright
Jump in the whirlwind
I'm letting go [repeat twice]

Master and Savior, Sustainer and Creator
You move in power
And winds and thunder

It's alright
It's alright
Jump in the whirlwind
Letting go
Letting go - I'm letting go

a whirlwind cam into my life
and it tried to rescue me
will you come, will you go
will you tell me seriously
twisti', burnin', my thoughts turnin'
back to you again
sweet thing take me to the end

You better dig
and take a look inside yourself

so the story goes or so I've heard it said
that you left your land to trade for a place
so far away, so out of date
that only you could understand
and at the ceiling of my feeling
backed up against the wall
sweet thing you know I'd fall in line

You better dig
and take a look inside yourself

she wants to be free
and I want to know
that she wants to be free
and I want to know
