Story Behind The Song
The song started out with the chorus lyric, "crazy cowboy love, like the wild west, lose your head, not your thunder." We pictured a young woman, exultant and defiant as she falls for a wild, mad love that's bigger than her. But all the while she's hanging onto a core certainty of her own strength and inner power.
Song Description
A young woman dares to go with a crazy, wild love for a guy who lives on the edge, in the midst of excitement and danger; and learns how to hang onto her own inner power.

Lyrics
Thunder
by Tom and Mary Erangey, copyright 2010
Verse 1: I met you on the other side of wrong baby, uh uh oh
You and me on the other side of right maybe, uh uh on
Chorus: In the middle of crazy cowboy love
Like the wild west
Lose your head, not your thunder
Verse 2: We're like science and art making opposites complete baby, uh uh oh
Call me out like a Shakespeare dramedy maybe, uh uh oh
Chorus: In the middle of crazy cowboy love
Like the wild west
Lose your head, not your thunder
Uh uh uh oh-h
Uh uh uh oh
Uh-oh uh uh oh
Lose your head, not your thunder
Bridge: I'm thunder you're lightning, baby it's so exciting
I'm thunder you're lightning
Verse 3: So deal me in I need a diamond or a heart baby, uh uh oh
I'll follow you out 'cuz I'm sure we're gonna win, maybe, uh uh oh
Chorus: In the middle of crazy cowboy love
Like the wild west
Lose your head, not your thunder
Uh uh uh oh-h
Uh uh uh oh
Uh-oh uh uh oh
Uh uh uh oh-h
Uh uh uh oh
Uh-oh uh uh oh
Bridge: I'm thunder you're lightning, baby it's so exciting
I'm thunder you're lightning, baby it's so exciting
Go on lose your head girl, but don't lose your thunder
Go on lose your head girl, but don't lose your thunder
I'm thunder you're lightning, baby it's so exciting
I'm thunder you're lightning, baby it's so exciting
Go on lose your head girl, but never let 'em take your thunder
