Break out the candles
grab the wine
go find the matches
while there's time
Turn on the wireless
find the music for the mood
perhaps some popcorn
before there's no time left to brood
It's gotten colder
you feel a chill run down your spine
no need to worry
you're well prepared, you'll be just fine
You hear her coming
no more the gentle breeze
The dust is flying now
gets in your eyes then makes you sneeze
Batten down the hatches
it's really gonna blow
pull your armchair to the window
settle in and watch the show.
She's right on time
grab a blanket, wrap up warm.
light the candles, pour the wine
enjoy your first date with the storm
