Tornado Alley Lyrics

by Carrie Newcomer

You and I are two of a kind
Two restless spirits of the same mind
We know about the risks and yet we stay
We're brave or crazy or stubborn that way

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e43270-carrie_newcomer~tornado_alley_lyrics.html ]
When you live your life
In the shadow of a whirlwind
It might just come back again
I'll hold on to you
You hold on to me

And we'll stand our ground on Tornado Alley
Old ones talk about the one is 43
It blew through town unexpectedly

A little girl found cryin' down by the mill run
And to this day nobody knows where she came from
Chorus: When you live your life
In the shadow of a whirlwind
It might just come back again
I'll hold on to you
You hold on to me

And we'll stand our ground on Tornado Alley

Now Everyone got some story of narrow escape
Won by luck, fate or grace
You can run for cover, but you cannot hide
The only safe place is one that you hold inside
It's a misfit a wild card it's living in your backyard
It hears no voice but it's own
There's just some things that you just can't tame
Some mysteries you'll never call by name

When you live your life
In the shadow of a whirlwind
It might just come back again
I'll hold on to you
You hold on to me

And we'll stand our ground on Tornado Alley
Chorus: When you live your life
In the shadow of a whirlwind
It might just come back again
I'll hold on to you
You hold on to me

And we'll stand our ground on Tornado Alley
