Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Mean it from my broken down
You light the flame, light this flame of love, baby
Dreams are made for you and me
No one wants you if you'll be the losing guy
Come on and take my hand
Come on, come on and take my hand
Like a hurricane is coming tonight
Tonight my love is just on your side
You break my heart boy
My heart boy, tonight
Like a hurricane is coming tonight
Tonight my young heart's beating, that's right
You break my heart boy
My heart boy, tonight
You're living in a world of broken dreams
It's your time to pull the strings
You light the flame, light the flame of love, baby
Dreams are made for you and me
No one wants you if you'll be the losing guy
Come on and take my hand
Come on, come on and take my hand
Like a hurricane is coming tonight
Tonight my love is just on your side
You break my heart boy
My heart boy, tonight
Like a hurricane is coming tonight
Tonight my young heart's beating, that's right
You break my heart boy
My heart boy, tonight
Like a hurricane is coming tonight
Tonight my love is just on your side
You break my heart boy
My heart boy, tonight
The lyrics to C.C. Catch's song Like A Hurricane talk about hope and the power of love. The singer is broken down and lost in the city, but someone special lights a flame of love within them. Together they dream and they're made for each other. The song is an invitation to take the singer's hand, to grasp their chance at love before it's too late. The chorus talks about the urgency of the situation, comparing their love to a hurricane that's coming tonight. The singer's heart is on the line- they're vulnerable to being broken- but their love is strong and ready to withstand the storm.
The song's themes are universal, but the way they're presented is full of dramatic flair. The lyrics are full of contrasts- the city of lost and found, dreams and broken dreams, the light of love and the storm of a hurricane. The combination of these contrasting elements creates tension, which builds to the chorus, where the melody soars and the singer gives it their all. The urgency of the song is appropriate for an era of 80's pop music that valued big emotions and bold sounds.
