The leaves on the trees are turnin' inside out
From the Great White North thre's a big block cloud
Run for shelter if you can
There's a storm in the heartland

We made it through the Flood of 93
But this is gonna be the death of me
I can't hide the tears of a desperate man
There's a storm in the heartland

She's leavin' me just like a restless wind
And I can see my world is comin' to an end
Like the sound of thunder angry words ring out again
There's a storm in the heartland there's a storm in the heartland

[guitar]

The love she gave was like a breath of spring
Sweet and pure as a mountain stream
I couldn't see the danger close of hand
There's a storm in the heartland

She's leavin' me just like a restless wind...
There's a storm in the heartland
