When the Morning Comes

We lost an acre of our property Swept from the shore line Cause we believed That cutting back the trees Would keep us safe from fire We had to leave our homes When the river rose too high When the morning comes We won't be alone If the morning comes at all When the morning comes We will brave the storm If the morning comes at all It wasn't long ago when we believed Our children's children's children would see What we see Then decade after decade We ignored the signs The cities became desolate We're short on time When the morning comes We won't be alone If the morning comes at all When the morning comes We will brave the storm If the morning comes at all When the morning comes We won't be alone If the morning comes at all When the morning comes We will brave the storm If the morning comes at all When the morning comes We won't be alone If the morning comes at all When the morning comes We will brave the storm If the morning comes at all
