You were expecting a sweet rain
You got hit with the hurricane
Dark clouds
Heavy debris
I know what it's like to love me

You lost your home in the storm
Baby when I rain, I pour
Sorry to displace your spirit
You're probably not ready to hear this

You got to know, wherever you go
I'll be right there beside you
When your heart breaks
Baby, when your earth quakes
Call me and I'll come to find you

'Cause you can't escape my love
You can't escape my love
It's a hurricane
My love is a hurricane

August of '83
Alicia came to wreck my city
Six days before I was born
I'd like to think that was some kind of warning
They say there's power in the rain
I find more power in my name
