Intro

I went to work for her that summer A teenage kid so far from home She was a lonely widow woman Hell bent to make it on her own

We were a thousands miles from nowhere Wheat fields as far as I could see D Dus2 E Both needing something from eachother Not knowing yet what that might be

Till she came to me one evening Hot cup of coffee and a smile In a dress that I was certain She hadn't worn in quite a while

There was a difference in her laughter There was a softness in her eyes And on the air there was a hunger Even a boy could recognize

She had a need to feel the thunder To chase the lightning from the sky To watch the storm and all it's wonders Raging in her lovers eyes She had to ride the heat of passion Like a comet burning bright Rushing headlong in the wind Out where only dreams have been Burning both ends of the night

That summer wind was all around me Nothing between us but the night And when I told her that I'd never She softly whispered that's alright

And then I watched her hands of leather Turn to velvet in a touch There's never been another summer When I have ever learned so much

We had a need to feel the thunder To chase the lightning from the sky To watch the storm and all it's wonders Raging in eachothers eyes We had to ride the heat of passion Like a comet burning bright Rushing headlong in the wind Out where only dreams have been Burning both ends of the night

I often think about that summer The sweat the moonlight and the lace And I have rarely held another When I haven't seen her face

And everytime I pass a wheat field And watch it dancing in the wind Although I know it isn't real I just can't help but feel Her hungry arms again

She had a need to feel the thunder...

Rushing headlong in the wind Out where only dreams have been Burning both ends of the night
