Paloma

Lyrics for Paloma

I woke up at the darkest hour Every light upon the shoreline was out I gazed out into the deep blue As the thunderous waves roared Ooh, and in the black of night, I wouldn't be taken aback if The water came up and swept us out to sea Ooh, and in the black of night, I wouldn't be taken aback if The sun gave up and never brought the day Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh The heavy rain poured down The sky electric with the boom and rumble And in nerves, I counted silently Between the sight and the sound Ooh, and in the black of night, I wouldn't be taken aback if The water came up and swept us out to sea Ooh, and in the black of night, I wouldn't be taken aback if The sun gave up and never brought the day Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh And in the dimmest light of morning I found a mourning dove Paloma rode the wind to where she lay Silent as a stone Ooh, and in the black of night, I wouldn't be taken aback if The water came up and swept us out to sea Ooh, and in the black of night, I wouldn't be taken aback if The sun gave up and never brought the day Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
