[Intro]
(Ah, yeah)
Hmm-hmm
[Verse 1]
Since you've been gone my voice sounds like thunder
My friends say I seem like a cloudy day (Like a cloudy day, yeah)
All I need is a stroke of lightnin' to make my frame a little more frightenin'
And I'll be bad, bad weather 'til you come home, oh
[Chorus]
I'm gonna be bad weather
'Til you come home, oh, yes, I will, baby
I'm gonna be thunder and lightnin'
'Til you come home, oh, yeah
[Verse 2]
Now my little room reminds me of London town
When the evening sun goes down
Honey, it's cold and misty, and oh, so foggy
And it's hard to find my way around
And if I should stumble upon something that belongs to you
I become confused inside and I don't know what to do
[Chorus]
I'm gonna be bad weather, oh, baby
'Til you come home, baby, oh, yes, I will
I'm gonna be misty morning, oh, yeah
'Til you come home, and, oh, yeah, baby
[Verse 3]
There's a tornado inside of me
Adding to all of my misery
Girl, are you tryin' to destroy me
If so, let me know to prepare for much more
Of this bad weather
'Til you come home, oh, yeah, baby
It's gonna be thunder and lightin'
'Til you come home, yeah, yeah
[Outro]
It's gonna be, oh, baby
'Til you get here, baby
Oh, it's gonna be bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad weather
'Til you come home, baby
(Ah, yeah)
Hmm-hmm
[Verse 1]
Since you've been gone my voice sounds like thunder
My friends say I seem like a cloudy day (Like a cloudy day, yeah)
All I need is a stroke of lightnin' to make my frame a little more frightenin'
And I'll be bad, bad weather 'til you come home, oh
[Chorus]
I'm gonna be bad weather
'Til you come home, oh, yes, I will, baby
I'm gonna be thunder and lightnin'
'Til you come home, oh, yeah
