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