[Verse 1]
Three thirty in the morning
Not a soul in sight
The city's looking like a ghost town
On a moonless summer night
Raindrops on the windshield
There's a storm moving in
He's headed back from somewhere
That he never should have been

[Refrain]
And the thunder rolls
And the thunder rolls

Every light is burning
In a house across town
She's pacing by the telephone
In her faded flannel gown
Asking for a miracle
Hoping she's not right
Praying it's the weather
That has kept him out all night

[Refrain]
And the thunder rolls
And the thunder rolls
[Chorus]
The thunder rolls
And the lightning strikes
Another love grows cold
On a sleepless night
As the storm blows all
Out of control
Deep in her heart
The thunder rolls

[Verse 2]
She's waiting by the window
When he pulls into the drive
She rushes out to hold him
Thankful he's alive
But on the wind and the rain
A strange new perfume blows
And the lightning flashes in her eyes
And he knows that she knows

[Refrain]
And the thunder rolls
And the thunder rolls

[Chorus]
The thunder rolls
And the lightning strikes
Another love grows cold
On a sleepless night
As the storm blows all
Out of control
Deep in her heart
The thunder rolls
The thunder rolls
