What: We will have a one hour skirmish to write to a prompt.*
This was my prompt, so I have no one to blame but myself for this absolute Turdy McTurdblossom of a crappy romance novel lyrics. By V2 I just decided to go all in with the bad. I will neither confirm, nor deny, the existence of double entendres here! Some of you need Jesus. JUST! SAYING!
(HINT: It's okay to laugh. This was meant to be cheesy! Let's face it - most hurricanes think they're a Category 5 when in reality they're barely a Tropical Depression. )
Lyrics:
VERSE 1
Mmmm, feel the warm breeze blow
Mmmm, barometer low
Waves are cresting as I sink into the sands
As I sink… into your hands
CHORUS
I'm caught up in the eye of your hurricane
In a wall of clouds and pouring rain
Like a storm surge rising I can't contain
How I feel in the eye
Of your hurricane
VERSE 2
The energy between us rapidly intensifies
Like the thunder in these stormy skies
The windows rattle when my name I hear you call
When your Category 5 makes landfall
(CHORUS)
BRIDGE
Meeting on the ocean
Tropical convergence
Caught in circular motion
Passionate resurgence
Building, churning
There's no dissipation tonight
