Could've Been In Kansas • PDF
Words & Music by Sherri Reese
If I’d seen the warning
That a storm was forming
I would’ve held you oh so tight
Never let the wind blow me
Out of your sight
One day the sky was clear and blue
The next I could’ve been in Kansas
For all I knew
For all I knew
Could’ve been in Kansas
For all I knew
Lights were flashing
Warning me to take cover
Should’ve outrun the clouds
Should’ve outrun the thunder
But I stood still
Closed my eyes in the dark
That whirlwind tore right through my heart
Chorus
Two fronts clashed
One hot one cold
Swirling in a circle
Spun me out of control
The woman in the mirror
I didn’t even know
Couldn’t see where I was going
When the wind began to blow
Chorus
You couldn’t find me
I was out of reach
But you never gave up
Your search for me
You fought the wind
Weathered the rain
Found my hand
Brought me home again
Home again
Brought me home again
Home again
The storm held it’s ground
For days and days
The road was buried
I had lost my way
Miles and miles of chaos and debris
But you never lost your belief in me
Next day the sky was clear and blue
Said goodbye to Kansas
Thanks to you
Said goodbye to Kansas
Thanks to you
Thanks to you
