[Verse 1]
Sailin' down the coast of Mexico
With a person I loved since long ago
Into a place nobody wants to go

[Chorus]
Into a hurricane
Whoa, hurricane
Some'll be taken
Some'll remain

[Verse 2]
Heard people screamin' and the sky was torn
I looked around and the faces were so forlorn
No relief, only scorn

[Chorus]
In a hurricane
In a hurricane
Some'll be taken
Some'll remain

[Bridge]
Hurricane's just another name
For the torment in a man's soul
His mind is gone
And he starts to lose control
[Chorus]
In a hurricane
Oh, the hurricane
Some'll be taken
Some'll remain

[Outro]
How long will the wind blow?
How long will the wind blow?
Everybody talks, nobody really knows
How long will the wind blow?
How long will the wind blow?
Shoo-ba-ree-ba, shoo-ba-ree-ba, nobody knows
How long will the wind blow?
How long will the wind blow?
Everybody talks, nobody really knows
How long will the wind blow?
How long will the wind blow?
Shoo-ba-ree-ba, shoo-ba-ree-ba
