The leaves on the tree are turnin` inside out
From the Great White North there`s a big black cloud
Run for shelter if you can
There`s a storm in the heartland
We made it through the flood of `93
But this is gonna be the death of me
I can`t hide the tears of a desperate man
There`s a storm in the heartland
She`s leavin` me just like a restless wind
And I can see my world is comin` to an end
Like the sounds of thunder empty words ring out again
There`s a storm in the heartland
There`s a storm in the heartland
The love she gave was like a breath of spring
Sweet and pure as a mountain stream
I couldn`t see the danger close at hand
There`s a storm in the heartland
She`s leavin` me just like a restless wind
And I can see my world is comin` to an end
Like the sounds of thunder empty words ring out again
There`s a storm in the heartland
There`s a storm in the heartland
There`s a storm in the heartland
