I saw it coming from a hundred miles away

I saw the sky turn from sapphire to grey

Every bird around had flown right out of sight

It was broad day but it looked like midnight

The branches dance a supernatural dressage

Everyone anticipating your barrage

They told me to board up the doors and all the glass

Told me to run for cover, wait for it to pass

You're a cyclone - once you get near me I won't know my home

You're a cyclone - once you get near me I will never never know my home again

I won't know my home

Now I lay out before you like a plain

The sky is darkening, it starts to rain

But lighting shows me something here

What is this? what's growing near?

Get near me now, get near me

You’re a cyclone - once you get near me I will never know my home no more

Kick! down! the glass and the doors! ‘cause I want you to come in

Get near me now, get near me
