[Verse 1] Listen to the wind howling Leaves rolling down the road Raindrops on a metal roof Counting seconds in the cold Belly growling in the dark Dogs barking at the sky Every creak inside this house Makes the night crawl by [Chorus] Tornado morning But I’m still here Waiting for the daybreak To make it clear Tornado morning Heart drum in my chest If the world keeps turning I’ll call this fear a test [Verse 2] Sky humming low and heavy Shutters shaking on the frame Phone light on the kitchen table Whispering your name Somewhere there’s a radio Talking like it knows I’m tracing little prayers In the dust along my clothes [Chorus] Tornado morning But I’m still here Waiting for the daybreak To make it clear Tornado morning Heart drum in my chest If the world keeps turning I’ll call this fear a test [Bridge] Night going by slower than usual Every breath a little ritual Sun rising somewhere out there, I swear Birds practicing their songs in the thin blue air Squirrels running branch to branch in my mind I’m holding out to see that light this time [Chorus] Tornado morning But I’m still here Waiting for the daybreak To make it clear Tornado morning Heart drum in my chest When the birds start singing I’ll know I’ve passed this test
