Calm Before the Storm

There'll be pain ahead, as there always is

As long as I'm around you

But for now I hope we'll just enjoy

The calm before the storm

It's so quiet now, when we fall in love

"Oh, finally, I've found you"

And the world stands still

Oh, what a thrill

The calm before the storm

But lightning strikes again

She rears her ugly head

With ecstasy and sorrow

In the air, quite a pair

I was wiser then, I'm much younger now

That I see I knew nothing

Though depressing, I must recognize

The calm before the storm

I know it's only right

Winds blow, with all your might

The house of cards goes toppling

Every time, by design

Da-da da-da da, da-da da-da da

Da-da, da-da, da-da da

And the world stands still, oh, what a thrill

The calm before the storm

And it's still a thrill, when we stand still

The calm before the storm

For now and nevermore
