Ruben Blades - The Calm Before The Storm Lyrics

The Calm Before The Storm LyricsThere was a time when ignorance made our innocence strong
There was a time when we all thought we could do no wrong
There was a time, so long ago
But here we are, in the calm before the storm

While the orchestra plays
They build barricades to help close the doors
While the musician sings
The holocaust rings the cymbals of war
We stare
At the things that were there
And no longer are -
And in our hearts
Here we are again
In the calm before the storm
There was a time when we had an idea whose time hadn't come
They kept changing its name so we could still pretend
It was not really gone
We heard our screams turn into songs and back into screams again
And here we are again
In the calm before the stormYou might also like
