LYRICS

DESTINY
LOST THERE IN MY LONELY DARK
YOU FOUND ME AND LIT A SPARK
NEW CHANCES AND SHINY DREAMS
GRABBED HANDS AND WE MADE THE LEAP
HEAD FIRST AND WE WENT IN DEEP
BIG ADVENTURES AND CRAZY SCHEMES

TOOK ME IN, AND I TOOK NEW FORM
GATHERED ME IN YOUR GATHERED STORM

WE WERE HURRICANES
THUNDER ROLLING IN OUR VEINS
WE WERE HURRICANES
RAGING WINDS TO BLOW IT ALL AWAY
TRYING TO BREAK A NEW DAY
WE WERE HURRICANES

RAMONA
HIGH TIMES RUNNING WILD AND FREE
IT WAS CRAZY AND SO WERE WE
HAD EACH OTHER AND LIFE WAS GOOD
DON'T TELL ME TO HAVE REGRETS
IT WAS REAL AS A FRIENDSHIP GETS
LOVE, FAMILY AND SISTERHOOD

EVEN NOW, THOSE THINGS REMAIN -
AND HOW WE MADE IT RAIN!

WE WERE HURRICANES
LIGHTNING FLASHING IN OUR VEINS
WE WERE HURRICANES

DESTINY & RAMONA
NOW THERE'S NO MORE RULES TO BREAK
NOW THAT WE'VE BEEN DRENCHED AWAKE
NOW THAT ALL OUR PLANS ARE TORCHED
NOW THAT ALL OUR EARTH IS SCORCHED
NOW THAT WE'VE ALL BURNED AND CRASHED
NOW THAT WE'VE BEEN TORN AND DASHED
NOW THAT IT'S BEEN WASHED AWAY
NOW RISE FOR ANOTHER DAY
NOW DAYLIGHT IS COMING THROUGH
NOW AND THEN I WILL THINK OF YOU...

RAMONA
WAVES CRASH ON AN EMPTY SHORE
WINDS WHIP, BUT I STILL WANT MORE
CLOUDS PART WITH A GLIMPSE OF DAWN

DESTINY
STORMS PASS AND THEY LEAVE DEBRIS
LAST SPLINTERS OF YOU AND ME
NOTHING LEFT HERE BUT MOVING ON

DESTINY & RAMONA
I'M READY TO SAY MY GOOD BYES
BUT I'LL MISS HOW WE OWNED THE SKIES...

WE WERE HURRICANES
THUNDER ROLLING IN OUR VEINS
WE WERE HURRICANES

WE WERE HURRICANES
ONLY MEMORY REMAINS
WE WERE HURRICANES

RAMONA
Man, did we make it rain
