There was a time when my life was easy
Stretched out in the sun
Everything was clover
The world was off my shoulders for awhile
Then the sky turned a bonfire shade
And hit me like a gun
It passed with flying colors
There's no flying over
The storm
We will dance as it breaks
The storm
It will give as it takes
And all of our pain is washed away
Don't cry or be afraid
Some things only can be made
In the storm
Sometimes we get swept away
We're forced to take the change
The desert gives you comfort
You can't stay here all your wounded life
Underneath is a tempest rage
Of secrets come undone
When mountains need moving
Let me help you through it
The storm
We will dance as it breaks
The storm
It will give as it takes
And all of our pain is washed away
Don't cry or be afraid
Some things only can be made
In the storm
