Lyrics
Move out to Ohio You'll like it, we swear The weather is lovely And the skies are always bare They told me it's perfect That's a lie, I see it clear I've started regretting Ever shacking up out here The clouds on the horizon are looking mighty dark to me And I feel humidity rising I look outside my window and I see the circling storm And not much longer now You'll come smashing through my door And leave me without a chance to run This apartment isn't big enough for both of us I'll be lucky to survive The wreck that you leave behind You're the whirlwind over Cincinnati tonight The whirlwind over Cincinnati tonight The pressure is dropping You're still in the air The sirens are yelling All the streets and shops are bare There's nothing between us But electrified sky I always used to love the thunder But now I have to wonder why I see you coming closer; I'm saying my last words And hoping you can't hear me I never once expected I'd be staring down a whirlwind's eyes They don't make girls like you back home But soon you'll come smashing through my door And leave me without a chance to run This apartment isn't big enough for both of us I'll be lucky to survive The wreck that you leave behind You're the whirlwind over Cincinnati tonight The whirlwind over Cincinnati tonight There's been a few times when I thought that the world would be quieter If everyone else was dead But that isn't something you say out loud And who knows? Maybe you're right Maybe my outlook could be a bit brighter But there's nothing to do but watch the world drown When I'm trapped under your storm cloud You told me you'd leave, you promised you'd go But there's something about you that's pleasant to know In a matter of time I'll be out there again And praying for rain just to let you come in Come on, smash right through my door And leave me without a chance to run This apartment isn't big enough for both of us I'll be lucky to survive The wreck that you leave behind You're the whirlwind over Cincinnati tonight The whirlwind over Cincinnati tonight
