On the day that we left
The neighbourhood heart skipped a beat.
Oh the trees folded up and they shook as we drove down the street
I said to myself ‘We’re finally getting away,
When we come back I know that they’ll all look the same’
Now let’s go to our city
And we’ll change over night
We won’t think about leaving
Oh why would we, its too good a time
A hurricane hit
While we were missing
Oh, can anybody tell me
Where the damage is?
On the day that we left the phones and the power were down
Oh the wind doubled up and it slammed every door in the town
You cried and you screamed played faith in the war
When it was done
The magic it left with the storm
Oh we moved to our city
And we changed all the night
We won’t think about leaving
Now why would we, its too good a time
A hurricane hit
While we were missing
Oh can anybody tell me
Where the damage is?
Above the waistline, beneath my skin,
you're not afraid to dig those fingernail in…
We don’t need our childhood
I’m so sure now I was there
By the time the winds have erased us
Oh I may aswell have lived here with you if anywhere
A hurricane hit
While we were missing
Oh can anybody tell me
Where the damage is
Above the waistline, beneath my skin,
Shes not afraid to dig those fingernails in…
Just the bit in the second pre-chorus needs correcting, I know its not 'played faith in the war', doesnt sound right at all.
The song itself is pretty self-explanatory, just about wanting to get away from somewhere you've been for a long time and starting anew.
