Storms Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Every night that goes between
I feel a little less
As you slowly go away from me
This is only another test
Every night you do not come
Your softness fades away
Did I ever really care that much?
Is there anything left to say?
[Chorus]
Every hour of fear I spend
My body tries to cry
Living through each empty night
A deadly calm inside
[Verse 2]
I haven't felt this way I feel
Since many a year ago
But in those years are the lifetimes past
I did not deal with the road
And I did not deal with you, I know
Though the love has always been
So I search to find an answer there
So I can truly win
[Chorus]
Every hour of fear I spend
My body tries to cry
Living through each empty night
A deadly calm inside
[Verse 3]
So I try to say goodbye, my friend
I'd like to leave you with something warm
But never have I been a blue calm sea
I have always been a storm
Always been a storm
Ooh, always been a storm
I have always been a storm
[Outro]
We were frail
She said, "Every night he will break your heart" (Storm)
I should have known from the first
I'd be the brokenhearted (Storm)
(Storm)
I loved you from the start (Storm)
Save us
(Storm) And not all the prayers in the world will save us

This album is a study in contrasts. It’s a very different mood from the previous song and a very strong song in terms of its form. It has its own folky, country thing going on. The recording speaks of it being cut fairly live. I love this song.

What has Stevie Nicks said about the song?
She told The Guardian in 2020:
That one was a – excuse my language – fuck-you to Mick [Fleetwood]. I sat at my piano, a feminist woman, and I wrote it, to say that nothing you or anybody else can do to me can change the fact that, as the opening line goes: ‘Every night that goes between / I feel a...
What has the media said about the song?
Rolling Stone named it the #43 greatest Fleetwood Mac song, saying:
This gentle meditative ballad is Nicks’ lament for her brief, messy affair with Fleetwood. ‘That
