The Storm - Jim Reeves

That kiss you gave me this morning was just the calm before the storm

I know in my heart that you’re leaving me for someone else’s own

The storm sometimes comes without warning so I’m thankful that I was forewarned

It gives me a chance to speak to my heart and to brace myself for the storm

The storm is coming I can feel it and soon we’ll be driven apart

You’ll rush to the arms of your new love deserting a broken heart

If there was a way I could hold you with words that are tender and warm

I’d rise and challenge the oncoming waves and defend our love from the storm

I’d rise and challenge the oncoming waves and defend our love from the storm
