I can see a hurricane tonight It keeps me from my valentine This voodoo's doing me harm Woo (woo), woo (woo), racing along But maybe this is the moment to pray, dear But I'd rather lay by your side 'Cause millions are fighting their way here Tell me...when did the water surround me? And tell me...is that love in your eyes? New Orleans will tremble tonight With bleeding hearts and swaying lights A very modern machine Woo (woo), woo (woo), it's coming for me Yeah, maybe this is the moment to say, dear That I thought I'd have you by now But sentiment got in the way, dear Tell me...when did the water surround me? And tell me...is that love in your eyes? And tell me...when did the water surround me? And tell me...is that, is that love? I can see a hurricane tonight It keeps me from my valentine A very modern machine Woo (woo), woo (woo), it's coming for me And tell me...when did the water surround me? And tell me...is that love in your eyes? And tell me...our last night on Earth is for living And tell me...is that, is that love? (Woo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo) Just tell me the truth, it makes me feel better The love in your eyes, it makes me feel better Just tell me the truth, it makes me feel better The love in your eyes, it makes me feel better (Woo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo)
