Lyrics

“I don’t think we’re prepared for rain,” she said
And I nodded, cause I knew that it was true
Driving to the Restless Heart show at the fairgrounds in Spokane
We were miles away from home so there was nothing we could do
We parked the car and took our seats beneath the angry skies
And when the music played the heavens opened up before our eyes

Though the skies had opened up to drown us
We just danced right through the storm
While the music wrapped its arms around us
Like a kind of magic blanket to keep us safe and warm
It was something you could never plan and I never could explain
But I danced all night with the girl I love
And we sang “Wheels” out in the rain.

The rain danced in the spotlights like a firestorm
And I never will forget the way the light danced in her eyes
We’ve been together for so long now that I guess it still amazed me
That as I held her close it took me by surprise
I guess I thought that our dancing in the rain days had reached their end
But in that moment we were kids again and I was holding my best friend.

Though the skies had opened up to drown us
We just danced right through the storm
While the music wrapped its arms around us
Like a kind of magic blanket to keep us safe and warm
It was something you could never plan and I never could explain
But I danced all night with the girl I love
And we sang “Wheels” out in the rain.
