Lyrics for Whirlpools' End

The sun came out & hung above Over our heads but far enough to see A bomb exploding in another town Children choking on a poison cloud While on the streets, where lovers once walked, Side by side in idle talk Bullets fall like unholy rain People change as the panic sets in, A frightened baby by her dead mother's side In a brutal world where there's nowhere To run, hide or cry Now nothing feels the same way, Feels like it's changing again, Upon a street with no name It's hard to find it again I ran as fast as my feet could fly Down country lanes where I took my time- Time like a hound snapping at my heels I got past thinking so I could feel, Feels like a film playing in my head And I kept rolling down green Surrey hills, In Spring Now nothing feels the same way Feels like I'm changing again Upon a street with no name It's hard to find me again, The sun came out & hung above, over our heads But far enough to see
