Summer Storm

Like a summer storm
You blew into my town
Stealing love from perfect strangers

Then you glanced my way
Moment sealed with your kiss
And I can still recall the feeling

You had the perfect smile
To go with the perfect words
My heart was filled with your wonder

You said, "Let's go live our dreams"
Won't hold nothing back
I'll be yours in every season

Like a summer storm
Out of nowhere you were born
Changing everything that you touched

Full of fury and grace
The way you touched my face
And my world was changed forever
But you vanished with the wind
You left nothing back
Never to return for any reason

Hope that day left my heart
Gone for good I'm afraid
Yet good is not always meant for your soul

The words flew from your lips
They changed the air I breathed
Always leaving me wanting more

Then suddenly I was alone
The sky dark / the sun hard to find
You took all the love I had to give

Now I scan the skies
Praying I'll see your eyes
Or maybe just a glimpse of your face

But like a summer storm
First you were here, then you're gone
Like trying to catch the wind in your hands
