5 Days In May - Lyrics by Blue Rodeo


Lyrics
They met in a hurricane
Standing in the shelter out of the rain
She tucked a note into his hand
Later on they took his car
Drove on down where the beaches are
He wrote her name in the sand
Never even let go of her hand
Somehow they stayed that way
For those 5 days in May
Made all the stars around them shine
Funny how you can look in vain
Living on nerves and such sweet pain
A loneliness that cuts so fine
To find the face you've seen a thousand times Sometimes the world begins To set you up on your feet again It wipes the tears from your eyes How will you ever know The way that circumstances go Always gonna hit you by surprise I know my part You were there In everything I've done You are the one
Looking back it's hard to tell
Why they stood while others fell
All I know is one cloudy day
They both just ran away
Rain on the windshield heading south
She loved the lines around his mouth Sometimes the world begins To set you up on your feet again It wipes the tears from your eyes How will you ever know The way that circumstances go
Always gonna hit you by surprise
I know my part
You were there
In everything I've done
You are the one
