One Jump Ahead of the Storm

There’s lightning’s flashing in my mirror
Thunder’s rolling up behind
Big blue clouds are going to roll in
Full of tears to make me blind
I can’t let his memory catch me
I can’t stop to cry no more
I’m just running down the highway
One jump ahead of the storm
One jump ahead of the crying
One jump ahead of his cold deceiving arms
One jump ahead of the lying
One jump ahead of the storm
One day I looked on the horizon
I saw his love just wouldn’t last
Before my mind was torn to pieces
I had to leave and get out fast
So I slipped out of his power
I saw my chance and got me gone
Before the rain could start to falling
One jump ahead of the storm
One jump ahead of the crying
One jump ahead of his cold deceiving arms
One jump ahead of the lying
One jump ahead of the storm
One jump ahead of the storm
Said I’m one jump ahead of the storm
Got to keep on running down the highway
Got to keep on running down the highway
