Michigan Storm

I was burnin’ up the highway, killin’ time

us, life had moved along

But one late-night conversation brought back something strong

Never saw it coming, never heard the warning sound

Then that northern sky came crashing all around

You came in like a Michigan storm

Lightning in your eyes, thunder in my heart

Hit me like a freight train rolling hard

Turned my whole world over in the dark

I spent all those years thinking I knew where I belonged

Then you came rolling in like a Michigan storm

There were miles between us, scars from yesterday

Two worn-out roads that somehow found the same old way

Started out talking, then the fire caught again

Like sparks off steel underneath a midnight wind

So I pointed that old highway east and let it roll

Every Michigan mile felt closer to my soul

Wasn’t chasing money, wasn’t chasing some old dream

I was chasing down the woman who still meant everything

You came in like a Michigan storm

Lightning in your eyes, thunder in my heart

Hit me like a freight train rolling hard

Turned my whole world over in the dark

I spent all those years thinking I knew where I belonged

Then you came rolling in like a Michigan storm

I’ve driven through the rain

I’ve driven through the snow

White lines, blacktop, everywhere I go

I’ve seen a hundred storms rolling off the lake

But you’re the only one I’d never wanna escape

You came in like a Michigan storm

Lightning in your eyes, thunder in my heart

Took an old flame we thought was gone

And turned it into something twice as strong

Now Michigan ain’t just another place I’m passing through

It’s where the road finally led me home to you

Yeah, I never saw it coming

Never knew where I belonged

Till you came rolling in

Like a Michigan storm

Like a Michigan storm

Yeah, you came rolling in

Like a Michigan storm
