Hurricane Glass - Catherine Feeny

Baby, I think that I’m dying

I wish I could see your face

One more time, before I’m gone

Forever from this place

It’s not what I wanted

It’s not what I planned

It’s not where I thought I’d be

Hurricane glass

I’ve driven up and down the coast

Just looking for a reason

To wake up in the morning

Now I’m in the Florida Keys

And I just gave away my car

I guess that I’m not going far

And it’s not what I wanted

Oh no, it’s not what I planned

It’s not where I thought I’d be

Hurricane glass

I counted all the tiles plastered on my hotel ceiling

Then drank through my two fingers just to see how I was feeling

And I tried to call you on the phone

But the line was dead or you weren’t home

And it’s not what I wanted

Oh no, it’s not what I planned

See it’s not where I thought I’d be

It’s just where I am

Walking through this tourist town

The heavy winds are blowing

And something’s coming towards me

Well it looks like it’s the ocean

And it’s not what I wanted

Oh no it’s not what I planned

It’s not where I thought I’d be

But it makes me laugh

It’s not what I wanted

Oh no, it’s not what I planned

It’s not where I thought I’d be
