Elements lyrics

You show up like a hurricane, all hungry-eyed and weather-stained

The clock forgets to tick and I the same

I died the day you disappeared, so why would you be welcome here?

Ride the wind that brought you back away

No you can't come in

No you can't come in

I cannot stop my rebel hands from pulling out the pots and pans

I left you in the cold until you shook

You're gentle now, but I recall

Both tender fire and bitter squall

A history so deep it hurts to look

No you can't come in

No you can't come in

No you can't - you can't come in

If the sea should swallow up my house

I will turn my rooftop inside out and the wind will be wailing

But I will be sailing faster

Oh the elements I do not fear, but I fall apart when you appear

'Cause you are the greatest -

The greatest disaster

If the sea should swallow up my house

I will turn my rooftop inside out and the wind will be wailing

But I will be sailing faster, oh
