Cheryl Wheeler - Act of Nature lyrics

The wind came round and blew this place apart

It's you and me now sitting in the dark

The lights are out and everybody's home

It's you and me and we are both alone.

The lines are down there's just no getting through

You stare at me and I stare back at you

And in the dark I know that I can't see

'Cause here you are and still don't see me.

Act of nature, act of god

Raging through our sedentary lives

We are on the brink

We are floundering

Spinning in this dark and rising tide.

The storm has blow this great big beauty down

The branches all confusion on the ground

I've watched it grow and thought I knew it well

I never dreamed I'd see the day it fell.

So bolt the door, seal the cracks

Close your eyes don't look back

Hold your ears tight against the roar

Someone said I should hear

Warning cries soft and clear

Whispered in the calm before the storm.

Act of nature, act of god

Raging through our sedentary lives

We are on the brink

We are floundering

Spinning in this dark and rising tide.

The wind came round and blew this place apart...
