lyrics: J. Morse © 1983 Everything was fine until the day you walked away Left me for a boy you knew before And then when things between us didn't seem to be so bad The explosion came and friendship was no more The calm before the storm Always seems to deceive Makes you think that things will be alright But when the thunder strikes You won't find a reprieve You'll run into the darkness of the night Where do lovers go when the rains have washed away Every single thing they used to share When they split apart and scatter off to parts unknown They wonder where the other's made their lair The calm before the storm Always seems to deceive Makes you think that things will be alright But when the thunder strikes You won't find a reprieve You'll run into the darkness of the night Silence shrouds the air as the violence abates And we're left to reflect, now all alone Thinking of the past, and what the future still might bring Lessons learned we probably should have known The calm before the storm Always seems to deceive Makes you think that things will be alright But when the thunder strikes You won't find a reprieve You'll run into the darkness of the night The flash and bang of lightning Rage across the lover's sea And the end has finally come for you and me |
