Whirlwind

Ballad... Love song...

Whirlwind 
By Michelle Morris

Say it's true,
That we'll always be together,
Say you're sure,
That you've got no doubts whatsoever...

Say they're pure,
All those thoughts you've been thinking,
Say we're more,
More than two desperate people...

Say it now,
That you can't live without me,
Tell me how,
You plan for us to be spared this time... 

Chorus 
Oh yes, we know... 
    (Oh yes, we know...) 
Broken hearts can be mended with love and patience, but 
Our hearts have had more than one round of this whirlwind... 
Don't want another whirlwind now... 
    (Don't want another whirlwind now...) 
(end chorus) 

So tell me it's true,
That we'll always be together,
     (Together now...)

So tell me you're sure,
That you've got no doubts whatsoever, 
    (No doubts whatsoever now...) 

Tell me they're pure,
The thoughts, the thoughts that you're thinking... 
    (That you're thinking...) 

Say it now,
That you can't live without me,
     (Without me...) 
Tell me how, 
      (Tell me how...) 
You plan for us to be spared this time... 
      (This time... This... time...) 

Chorus 

Oh, baby, say we're more,
More than two desperate people...
    (Are we desperate people...?) 

Oh baby, say it now,
That you can't live without me,
    (Can't live without me...) 

And baby, tell me how,
     (Tell me how...) 
You plan for us to be spared this time... 
    (This time...) 

Have we crossed the line...? 
     (Crossed the line now...) 
Are we going to be fine...? 
      (Fine now...) 

Chorus
