Before the Hurricane by Martin Newell Lyrics

In a country town, you can hear them say
That it's later now than it seemed to be the other day
Before the hurricane

In a country town, nothing much has changed
But some trees are down and the view was different in a way
Before the hurricane

But ah, things would be just the same
Ah, after the hurricane

In a country town, you can hear them pray
If a bomb should drop that the wind should never come our way
Before the hurricane

But ah, things would be just the same
Ah, (all blown away) after the hurricane

In a country town, you can hear them say
That it's later now than it seemed to be the other day
Before the hurricane
Before the hurricane
