Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
are clogging up my brain
like the weather drain
stain is the tears on my face,
and i'm stuck up in this storm, I
I guess i'll be alright
oh (uh oh, uh oh)
then it hits me like
oh (uh oh, uh oh)
oh no (uh oh, uh oh)
And you're that wind
that swept me off my feet
Got me flying till i'm
cying and i'm down on my knes,
that's what Dorothy was afraid
of the sneaky tornado
oh (uh oh, uh oh)
oh, oh (uh oh, uh oh)
There's no place like home
Oh whoa (uh oh, uh oh)
i'm falling out the windows
locking up my heart
it's like everytime
the wind blows
i feel it tearing us apart
Everytime he smiles
i'd let him in again
Everything is fine when
you're standing
in the eye of the hurricane
Here comer the sun,
here comes the rain
standing in the eye
of the hurricane I'm flopping on my bed
like a flying squirrel
like a little girl hurt
by the big bad world
yeah, it's twisting up my insides
get on it on the outside
oh (uh oh, uh oh)
oh, oh (uh oh, uh oh)
Yeah it hits me like
oh (uh oh, uh oh)
oh no (uh oh, uh oh)
And that's when you hold me,
you hold me
you tell me thaht you know me,
i'll never be lonely
say we made it through
the storm now,
but i'm still on the look out
oh (uh oh, uh oh)
oh, oh (uh oh, uh oh)
the airs getting cold
(uh oh, uh oh) co-old
i'm falling out the windows
locking up my heart
it's like everytime
the wind blows
i feel it tearing us apart
Everytime he smiles
i'd let him in again
Everything is fine when
you're standing
in the eye of the hurricane
Here comer the sun,
here comes the rain
standing in the eye
of the hurricane He picks me up like
He's got the way
of the hurricane
And i think i'm fine like
i'm in the eye of the hurricane
But i'm floating floating
and i dont know it, know it
i'm gonna drop
he's got the way
he's got the way
i'm falling out the windows
locking up my heart
it's like everytime
the wind blows
i feel it tearing us apart
Everytime he smiles
i'd let him in again
Everything is fine when
you're standing
in the eye of the hurricane
Here comer the sun,
here comes the rain
standing in the eye
of the hurricane He picks me up like
He's got the way
of the hurricane
He picks me up like
He's got the way
of the hurricane
And i think i'm fine like
i'm in the eye of the hurricane
uh uh oh uh...

Think the clouds
are clogging up my brain
I feel overwhelmed and unable to think clearly
like the weather drain
stain is the tears on my face
My tears are like raindrops, falling and leaving a mark on my face
and i'm stuck up in this storm, I
I guess i'll be alright
Despite the chaos around me, I have hope that everything will be okay
And you're that wind
that swept me off my feet
You came into my life suddenly and made a big impact on me
Got me flying till i'm
crying and i'm down on my knees
You have the power to make me feel both ecstatic and emotional
that's what Dorothy was afraid
of the sneaky tornado
The metaphorical tornado of emotions is what scared Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz
There's no place like home
Oh whoa (uh oh, uh oh)
As in the story of The Wizard of Oz, there's no place like home where I feel safe and loved
i'm falling out the windows
locking up my heart
I feel vulnerable and scared of being hurt
it's like everytime
the wind blows
i feel it tearing us apart
Every little conflict or change makes me worry that our relationship is in danger
Everytime he smiles
i'd let him in again
Despite the fear and vulnerability, I'm willing to let my guard down for love
Everything is fine when
you're standing
in the eye of the hurricane
When things are tumultuous, finding the calm in the middle of it all can make everything okay
Here comer the sun,
here comes the rain
standing in the eye
of the hurricane
Life is unpredictable, and finding the calm center only lasts for a moment before the chaos returns
He picks me up like
He's got the way
of the hurricane
My significant other has a strong ability to comfort and ground me
But i'm floating floating
and i dont know it, know it
i'm gonna drop
he's got the way
he's got the way
Despite feeling grounded, there's still a sense of uncertainty and fear that things could fall apart at any moment
