Like A Hurricane
Mission Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Dancing on the light from star to star
Far across the moon beam, I notice who you are
I saw your brown eyes turn and watch the fire
You are like a hurricane
There's calm in your eye
And I'm getting blown away
I wanna love you but I'm getting blown away
Away, away, away
I'm just a dreamer and you are just a dream
And you could have me anyone to me
Before that loving you touched my lips
The perfect feeling when time just slips
Away between us and the foggy trip
You are like a hurricane
There's calm in your eye
And I'm getting blown away
Somewhere safer where the feelings stay
I wanna love you but I'm getting blown away
Away, away, away, away, away, away, away
You are just a dreamer and I am just a dream
And you could have me anyone to me
Before that loving you touched my lips
The perfect feeling when time just slips
Away between us and the foggy trip
You are like a hurricane
There's calm in your eye
And I'm getting blown away
Somewhere safer where the feelings stay
I wanna love you but I'm getting blown away
"Like a Hurricane" by Mission is a beautiful ballad that talks about the intense attraction and love between two people. The lyrics describe the feeling of being swept off your feet by someone who has an inexplicable power over you. The first verse sets the scene in a crowded bar where the singer sees someone they are immediately drawn to. The person seems to be dancing on starlight and as the singer approaches their eyes meet and the fire between them ignites.
The chorus, "You are like a hurricane, there's calm in your eye, and I'm getting blown away," is a metaphor for the intense emotions the singer is experiencing. The person they are drawn to is like a force of nature, unpredictable and powerful, but at the same time, they have a calm and composed presence that the singer finds soothing. The singer wants to love this person but is hesitant because of the intense emotional storm they feel.
The second verse talks about the dreamlike quality of the experience. The singer describes the other person as just a dream, and themselves as a dreamer. The thing that makes this dream feel so perfect is the other person's touch, which is described as a perfect feeling where time just slips away.
In conclusion, "Like a Hurricane" is a beautiful love song that captures the feeling of being swept off your feet by someone you're intensely drawn to. The lyrics communicate a message of the intense emotional storm of love and attraction that can be overwhelming and still be a force for good in our lives.

Once I thought I saw you in a crowded hazy bar
I once caught a glimpse of you in a dimly lit, crowded environment
Dancing on the light from star to star
You appeared as though you were dancing from one bright spot to the next
Far across the moon beam, I notice who you are
Even at a distance and through the haze, I recognized who you were
I saw your brown eyes turn and watch the fire
You paused to gaze at the flickering flames and I caught a glimpse of your brown eyes
You are like a hurricane
You have a powerful and intense energy, like a storm
There's calm in your eye
Despite your forceful presence, there is a serene quality about you
And I'm getting blown away
I feel overwhelmed and swept up by your presence
Somewhere safer where the feelings stay
I desire to find a place of emotional safety where my feelings for you can remain intact
I wanna love you but I'm getting blown away
I yearn to express my love for you, but I feel like I am losing control in your presence
I'm just a dreamer and you are just a dream
I have high hopes and aspirations for us, but they may only be fleeting dreams
And you could have me anyone to me
You are so bewitching that anyone would fall for you, including me
Before that loving you touched my lips
Before we shared a tender kiss and my love for you became real
The perfect feeling when time just slips
The feeling of being lost in time and space when we are together
Away between us and the foggy trip
Our love exists in a hazy and uncertain place

Nice one!
Bought the CD in 92.
First time I am listening to it since more then about 25 years.
Time is escaping so rapidly...it is just
so dreadful and incredible.
Got not more to say, cause the rest
is unfathomable to us...draw your own conclusions!!!!

GRAN GRUPO, LOS AÑOS HAN DEJADO CLARO QUE ES GRUPO DE CULTO, TODOS SUS TEMAS SON EXTRAORDINARIOS THE MISSION.

What fookin great cover. as a lifelong Neil Young fan I don't send out that praise lightly. I saw these guys open for the Psychedelic Furs in '88 or '89 (can't be sure now) and they blew the Furs off the frickin stage. What a band. My friends and I walked out on the Furs halfway through their set - they just couldn't compare to the Mission!

Still fresh....easily the best version of a fab tune ....
Kevin K
For me, this is the single best cover ever made.

Gotta say it's not only great cover of a great song, but it they have to be heard live playing it for it to be really appreciated. The sound quality on here just doesn't do 'em justice.
Kevin K
I have never had the chance to see them live, unfortunately.
Erin
@Kevin K Oh too bad! I saw them when Children came out & I was in heaven. I even wore my matching Wayne hat to the show LOL
Eric Lehman
Jane's Addiction's cover of Sympathy for the Devil is my fav, but I like this cover too.

@Kevin K I saw them three times, best was a Festival on the Loreley Rock above the Rhine River with Sugarcubes(Björk!!!), The Pixies and a sensational 3,5 hours The Cure show...
