One, two, one, two, three, four

They met in a hurricaneStanding in the shelter, out of the rain

She tucked a note into his hand

Later on, they took his car

Drove on down where the beaches are

He wrote her name in the sand

Never even let go of her hand

Somehow they stayed that way

For those five days in May

Made all the stars around them shine

Funny how you can look in vain

Living on nerves and such sweet pain

Loneliness that cuts so fine

Find the face you′ve seen a thousand times

Sometimes the world begins

To set you up on your feet again

And I know it wipes the tears from your eyes

How will you ever know

The way that circumstances go?

Always gonna hit you by surprise

But I know my past

You were there

Everything I've done

You are the one

Looking back, it′s hard to tell

Why they stood while others fell

Spend your life or give it out

All I know is one, cloudy day

They both just ran away

Rain on the windshield headed south

Oh, she loved the lines around his mouth

Sometimes the world begins

To set you up on your feet again

And I know it wipes the tears from your eyes

How will you ever know

The way that circumstances go?

Always gonna hit you by surprise

But I know my past

You were there

Everything I've done

You are the one
