It's never a good idea when your girl can change the weather.

People always look for deeper meanings in what are really just coincidences. For a long time, every significant event in my life that involved the opposite sex took place during episodes of bizarre inclement weather.
So, once, out of the blue, I walked past a girl I had had a huge crush on 3 years before (on the other side of the state). She didn't recognize me, and I couldn't be perfectly sure it was her, because she appeared to have grown at least 5 inches.
And it was September, and snowing.

She put a chill to the air when she came
to town...
Just a quick glance and the lights go down...
(Oh yeah, oh yeah...)
I thought it was her, but I couldn't be
sure...
I want to forget her, but there ain't no cure...
(Oh no, oh no...)
And now I see her face in every part
of my life;
and I see her eyes, though I'm far
from home.
And I feel the pain that twists
like a knife;
and I wonder if her appearance today is an
omen...
She sent a chill down my spine when she
walked in the room...
It was on her eyes and in her perfume...
(Oh yeah, oh yeah...)
I will never be sure if it was actually
her...
I'd like to check back, but it'll never occur...
(Oh no, oh no...)
And now I see her face in every part
of my life;
and I see her eyes, though I'm far
from home.
And I feel the pain that twists
like a knife;
and I wonder if her appearance today is an
omen...
