When those tornadoes
Come rolling through
Even in dreams, they’ll make you wonder what to do
The walls are shakin’
The silo fell
And yet you’re calm as your foundation gets beat all to hell
Because there are some times
When your mind rewinds
It’s a slow hard climb
On the trail where you find
That I have been here once before
Not sure exactly when
Not sure exactly where
And I don’t know what for
But here I am again
And here we’re gonna go
I wish that I knew where
But I don’t have a clue
Just a little déjà vu
If it’ll happen
It’s in the hand
Even with jokers over aces, that’s the plan
So you can trade ‘em
Or cash ‘em out
Or wear contentment while the others are shadowed in doubt
Because there are some times
When your mind rewinds
It’s a slow hard climb
On the trail where you find
CHORUS
Standing in the forest unaware of any trees
They all could be eliminated with relative ease
The planting and the seeding and the patience is the trick
But if you stand and tug the shoots
They’ll die off quick
CHORUS
