eye of the storm
Jonathan Jackson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If you don't know by now you better listen good
You got me chasin' but I probably shouldn't, baby
One of these days I'll end up tattered and torn,
but right now, I'm gonna kiss you in the eye of the storm
Kiss me.

Up and down, you got me ringing that bell
That way you wear that dress, you wear it so well, I'm breaking
Look out the door, there's chaos all through this town
So, hold me tight and I won't let you fall down

Don't think about it. No doubt about it
Better kiss me quick, we're in the eye of the storm
No doubt about it. Don't think about it
Better kiss me quick, we're in the eye of the storm

Better get low, these walls are ripping away
Get low, get low, down get on your knees and pray
In the name of love, how could you do me like that?
This thunder's rolling like a heart attack

Don't think about it. No doubt about it
Better kiss me quick, we're in the eye of the storm
Don't think about it. No doubt about it
Better kiss me quick, we're in the eye of the storm

Kiss me

Don't think about it. No doubt about it
Better kiss me quick, we're in the eye of the storm




Don't think about it. No doubt about it
Better kiss me quick, we're in the eye of the storm

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Eye of the Storm" by Jonathan Jackson speak about the passionate love affair between two people who are caught up in a tumultuous relationship. The singer sings to his lover, warning her that he is into her so much that he is ready to risk everything just to be with her. From the start of the song, it is made clear that the relationship is risky and tempestuous, with the singer expecting to end up 'tattered and torn' as a result of chasing after his lover. The 'town' is in chaos outside, with walls coming down around them, but he tells her to hold him tight, and he won't let her fall down. The singer asks her to kiss him in the 'eye of the storm,' a reference to the brief lull that sometimes occurs in the middle of a hurricane before it intensifies. The song is a plea to savor the present, to forget about the chaos of the outside world and focus on their relationship.


The chorus repeats over and over, with lines like "Better kiss me quick, we're in the eye of the storm," which suggest that the singer wants to hold onto the moment as long as possible, even though he knows it is fleeting. The metaphor of the storm is extended in the song, with references to thunder rolling like a heart attack, and the walls around them ripping away. This can be interpreted as a metaphor for the intense emotions that the singer feels for his lover.


Overall, "Eye of the Storm" is a passionate ode to the thrill of being in love in a dangerous and unpredictable world. The song encourages its listeners to take risks, to enjoy the present moment, and to embrace the chaos of both love and life.


Line by Line Meaning

If you don't know by now you better listen good
Pay attention to what I'm about to say


You got me chasin' but I probably shouldn't, baby
You're making me pursue you, even though it's not a good idea


One of these days I'll end up tattered and torn,
Eventually, this pursuit will wear me down and hurt me


but right now, I'm gonna kiss you in the eye of the storm
But for now, I'll take my chances and kiss you in the midst of all this chaos


Up and down, you got me ringing that bell
You're making me emotional and confused


That way you wear that dress, you wear it so well, I'm breaking
You look so good in that dress that it's causing me to lose control


Look out the door, there's chaos all through this town
The world around us is in turmoil and disorder


So, hold me tight and I won't let you fall down
Hold onto me and I'll keep you safe from harm


Better get low, these walls are ripping away
We need to hide because the structure around us is falling apart


Get low, get low, down get on your knees and pray
We need to seek divine intervention to survive this storm


In the name of love, how could you do me like that?
I trusted you because of love, but you betrayed me


This thunder's rolling like a heart attack
The chaos and noise of this storm feel like a physical assault


Better kiss me quick, we're in the eye of the storm
We need to act fast and enjoy this moment before the storm destroys us


Kiss me
Let's share this moment of passion
