lyrics

The Morning After

On the morning after
the sun broke through the dark black shroud
and the birds they started singing
as if there had never been a doubt
And we stood there in silence
‘cause words just seemed so out of place
on the morning after
there rose a brand new day

On the morning when the gun
was finally put away
and the killing and dying
and hatred had nothing else to say
And people stepped from the shadows
my friends it was something else to see
And on the morning it rang out like a jubilee

For you are loved don’t close your eyes
For you are loved and a stranger cried

On the morning we woke
from a fevered dream
Where the world had turned flat
and we learned what this nightmare means
And a body lay on the sidewalk
I felt the touch of a strangers hand
and we held onto to each other
across the distance of this land

[chorus]

I heard a story
of a third man walking
walking beside you in the dark of the night
Who was the third man walking and what did the third man say?
Waiting there to hold you at the end of the day.
