Lyrics

The Wind and the Thunder

I was driving home when I saw a deer
Dash from woods before my car
I hit the brakes but it came so near
As close as I hold this guitar

It's simple that life's a bet
Sometimes you win, sometimes you get
You draw a card off of the deck
You cash it in or you pay your debt

It’s the forces of nature, its the roll of the dice
It’s the wind and the thunder, and it never strikes twice
It’s the sound of the turning of the world beneath your feet
So pay good attention, or you just might loose your seat

I ran into a love I knew
On an old Seattle street
By accident or happenstance
By chance there we did meet

And we talked of all the good times past
Before we said goodbye
I never saw her face again
But I’ll not forget her eyes

It’s the forces of nature, its the roll of the dice
It's the wind and the thunder, and it never strikes twice
It’s the sound of the turning of the world beneath your feet
So pay good attention, or you just might loose your seat
