Hurricane Lyrics

Hadn't had a good time
Since you know when
Got talked into going out
With hopes you were staying in
I was feeling like myself for the first time
In a long time
'Til I bumped into some of your friends
Over there talkin' to mine

Then you...

   This song is all about a narrator struggling to deal with heartbreak.
   
   Verse 1:
   "Hadn't had a good time
   Since you know when
   Got talked into going out
   With hopes you were staying in
   I was feeling like myself for the first time
   In a long time
   'Til I bumped into some of your friends
   Over there talkin' to mine"
   
   Since "you know when" (when they broke up), he hadn't been able to have a good time. His friends eventually convinced him to go out to the bar to have some fun, but he hoped that this girl was not going out (they likely frequented this same bar together or they're in a small town area with few bars). As the night goes on, he begins to feel more like himself, but then he notices his friends are talking to some of the girl's friends.
   
   Chorus:
   "Then you rolled in with your hair in the wind
   Baby, without warning
   I was doing alright
   But just your sight had my heart storming
   The moon went hiding, stars quit shining
   Rain was driving, thunder, lightning
   You wrecked my whole world when you came
   And hit me like a hurricane
   Hit me like a hurricane"
   
   The narrator notices the girl come in to the bar and in his mind, it's a dramatic entrance. He was doing okay, but seeing her come in changes everything. The narrator sees her, and his feelings towards her, like a hurricane: sudden, powerful, and capable of major damage. He is unable to control his feelings when she's around, even though she has hurt him.
   
   Verse 2:
   
   "Knew it was gonna be a long night
   From the moment when
   We locked eyes over whiskey on ice
   Started talking bout us again
   If I woulda just layed my drink down
   And walked out
   I wouldn't be in my truck
   Driving us to your house"
   
   The narrator and the girl lock eyes after they both get their drink of choice (whiskey on ice) and start talking. The narrator knows he should have just put down his drink and walked out, but he didn't. Now he is in his truck with her, on the way to her house. As he's driving, he is sure this is will end badly, but he can't stop himself
   
   
   Verse 3:
   "You hit me category five
   With your smile
   Blew me away
   And girl, it ain't but midnight
   You done killed the lights
   Bent my heart back to your bedside"
   
   The girl has a significant effect on the narrator. All it took was a smile and he was "blown away". It's only midnight, fairly early for people who typically stay out late, and he's already back with her in her bed. With very little effort, he is in bed with her knowing she very well will probably hurt him again or make the same choices before that led to the last breakup.
   
   The chorus just repeats after this. Basically, this guy was really in love with this girl and when it went sour, it was very hard. He has not been able to get over her and misses her despite how much she hurt him, so when she comes back into his life by chance, it hits him "like a hurricane" and he can't help but go running back to her and into bed with her. At the same time, he knows that this all will probably go bad but he can't help it.
