1. I went to work for her that summer, a teenage kid so far from home,
C D
she was a lonely widow woman, hell bent to make it on her own.
G
We were a thousands miles from nowhere,
Em
wheat fields as far as I could see,
C D
both needing something from eachother,
G
not knowing yet what that might be.
G Em
2. Till she came to me one evening, hot cup of coffee and a smile,
C D
in a dress that I was certain she hadn't worn in quite a while.
G
There was a difference in her laughter,
Em
there was a softness in her eyes,
C D G
and on the air there was a hunger, even a boy could recognize.
D C
She had a need to feel the thunder,
G
to chase the lightning from the sky,
C D
to watch the storm and all it's wonders raging in her lovers eyes.
Em G
She had to ride the heat of passion, like a comet burning bright,
C D
rushing headlong in the wind, out where only dreams have been,
G C- G
burning both ends of the night.

3. That summer wind was all around me,
Em
nothing between us but the night,
C
and when I told her that I'd never,
D
she softly whispered, "That's alright!"
G Em
And then I watched her hands of leather turn to velvet in a touch,
C D
there's never been another summer,
G
when I have ever learned so much.

4. I often think about that summer,
Em
the sweat, the moonlight and the lace,
C D
and I have rarely held another, when I haven't seen her face.
G
And everytime I pass a wheat field,
Em
and watch it dancing in the wind,
C
although I know it isn't real,
D G
I just can't help but feel her hungry arms again. + REFRAIN
C D
rushing headlong in the wind, out where only dreams have been,
G C- D- G
burning both ends of the night.
