    Thunder Bay

    by: Sawyer Brown

    I never thought that anyone could do me like you do me
    I never thought that love would get in the way
    But there was magic in the air and there were stars out on the water
    On a moonlit night in Thunder Bay
    Was it the lightning on the water? Was it the thunder from the bay?
    When the night goes down, they are hard to tell apart
    Just like howling at the moon and barking at the dark
    Just like howling at the moon and barking at the dark
    The eyes of disillusion keep burning holes right through me
    Down in Watertown, you'll see it all
    A willing hand, a second glance at evil in a red dress
    I threw in my hand and bet it all
    Was it the lightning on the water? Was it the thunder from the bay?
    When the night goes down, they are hard to tell apart
    Just like howling at the moon and barking at the dark
    Just like howling at the moon and barking at the dark
    I could've walked away
    I should've been afraid
    I never would've strayed
    But I did, yes, I did, in Thunder Bay
    Was it the lightning on the water? Was it the thunder from the bay?
    When the night goes down, they are hard to tell apart
    Just like howling at the moon and barking at the dark
