Avalanche Lyrics by Jim Peterik

Winds of Change

2019

[Verse 1: Gunnar Nelson]
Down in flames, like it's bad in a spin
When I met this girl, I'm wonderin'
How did I get from the rock I was to this mess you see?
(You tell me)
[Verse 2: Jim Peterik with Gunnar Nelson]
It's hard to think, even harder to breathe
I could not sleep, some distant memory
This is all on you, it won't do to deny it
I can't resist, there's no use to fight it
[Chorus]
You got me fallin' like an avalanche
Over and over, baby, takin' a chance on love, sweet love
Together, fallin' like an avalanche
Floatin' in time and, baby, doin' the dance of love, sweet love
[Post-Chorus: Jim Peterik with Gunnar Nelson]
When it comes to somethin' so damn good
You can never fall hard enough
[Verse 3: Gunnar Nelson & Jim Peterik,]
F5 tornado, the sun's kinda hot
They ain't got a thing on this thing we got
We got no choice, but you're givin' in to join the ride
(That's right)
[Verse 4]
Sweet surrender to destiny
An irresistible urge, ten-times gravity
Oh, that's what's brought us both together, now, it's time to begin
For me and you will do the damage of a hurricane wind, baby
[Chorus]
You got me fallin' like an avalanche
Over and over, baby, takin' a chance on love, sweet love
Together, fallin' like an avalanche
Floatin' in time and, baby, doin' the dance of love, sweet love
[Bridge]
You face the confusion, controls and illusions
It's all just a beautiful mess
Is this love or is it suicide?
One thing's for sure: this is a hell of a ride, baby
[Verse 2: Gunnar Nelson, Jim Peterik, & both]
It's hard to think, even harder to breathe
I could not sleep, some distant memory
This is all on you, it won't do to deny it
I can't resist, there's no use to fight it
[Chorus]
You got me fallin' like an avalanche
Over and over, baby, takin' a chance on love, sweet love
You and me, together, fallin' like an avalanche
Floatin' in time and, baby, doin' the dance of love, sweet love
[Outro]
Keep fallin', keep on fallin', ooh-hoo
Keep fallin', keep on fallin', ooh-hoo
Keep fallin', keep on fallin', ooh-hoo
Keep fallin', keep on fallin'
