You're the eye of a hurricane, the calm within a storm
When the day is done you're the midnight sun
I can run to, to keep me warm
You're the eye of a hurricane, a beacon in the night
When the whistle blows till the rooster crows
I know you're gonna do me right, yeah

Stuck out on the bay bridge creepin' through the fog
It's a dog eat dog day
Workin' on the south end, patchin' up holes
That the winter's gonna wash away
And when the boss man hollers, "Quittin' time!"
I'll be on my way, come rain or shine
To those Tampa lights calling me across the bay

You're the eye of a hurricane, the calm within a storm
When the day is done you're the midnight sun
I can run to, to keep me warm
You're the eye of a hurricane, a beacon in the night
When the whistle blows till the rooster crows
I know you're gonna do me right, yeah

Talkin' to the bank man, tryin' to get a loan
Got to keep away the wolf pack
Stoppin' by the junkyard, lookin' for a part
To rejeuvenate the Pontiac
And that dark cloud keeps on hangin' 'round
Lord, the tide comes up, when the chips are down
But I got your love to help me get the blue skies back
You're the eye of a hurricane, the calm within a storm
When the day is done you're the midnight sun
I can run to, to keep me warm
You're the eye of a hurricane, a beacon in the night
When the whistle blows till the rooster crows
I know you're gonna do me right, yeah
