|
standing in the foyer of the grand hotel, |
|
suitcase in his hand looking for a bill, |
|
there's a hurricane coming and everyone's trying to get away; |
|
time of the season, time of the year, |
|
the weather reporter from miami is clear, |
|
"find a save place to hide," there's no place here; |
|
and then the lights go down, |
|
in that caribbean town, |
|
and the fishing boats that go out from the coast, |
|
are tied up and dry, yeah yeah yeah, |
|
suddenly there's a movement to the telephone, |
|
but nobody's calling home tonight, |
|
they've taken out the very last flight, |
|
and they close down the borderline, |
|
'cos there ain't nowhere to hide, |
|
waiting for the hurricane, |
|
there is nowhere here to hide, |
|
waiting for the hurricane, |
|
oh there is nowhere you can hide, |
|
waiting for the hurricane, no no no no... |
|
staring out the window of the grand hotel, |
|
the sea was roaring, i remember well, |
|
and then the honeymoon bride began to cry, |
|
but as the band played on, |
|
some old love song, |
|
well he held her hand, |
|
gave her to understand, |
|
it'll be alright, yeah yeah yeah, |
|
suddenly there's a movement to the radio, |
|
but nobody's getting home tonight, |
|
they've taken out the very last flight, |
|
and they closed down the borderline, |
|
'cos there ain't nowhere to hide, |
|
waiting for the hurricane, |
|
there is nowhere here to hide, |
|
waiting for the hurricane, |
|
oh there is nowhere you can hide, |
|
waiting for the hurricane, |
|
oh there is nowhere you can hide, |
|
waiting for the hurricane, |
|
oh oh, waiting for the hurricane, |
|
oh oh, waiting for the hurricane, |
|
no no no no... |
