Neko said this song is actually about a dream she had where a tornado knocked on her door and professed its undying love for her, and she thought it was just the most bizarre thing to dream about, so she just had to capture it in a song before it escaped her. True story, it was during an interview with Jian Ghomeshi when she explained it.
No imagery or metaphor, she's talking about a real tornado.
Bingo. Glad to hear that she confirmed what I've always thought about this song. Sometimes songs use metaphors to convey a larger meaning, but this one is simply a song about a tornado that's in love. That's it.
