When the Windows Shook

When the Windows Shook - Paper Aeroplanes

Another story breaking

In a safe and sleepy town

Awoke to feel the fury of the

Fuel from underground

There's money in the harbour

It's a blessing and a curse

There's houses on the hillside

Safety in a purse

And the wind and the rain

Ran away with us

And the newspapers no longer stain

There was cold in your bones

When the windows shook

Like the black smoke has

Blown from my eyes

And there's a scar on the hillside

Tremors travel far but

I don't feel them like you do

Remind you you're human

And remind of what we'll lose

There's money in the harbour

It's a blessing and a curse

There's houses on the hillside

Safety in a purse

And we pray for the rain

And the wind to drop

For the calm in the eye of the storm

There was cold in your bones

When the windows shook

Like the black smoke has

Blown from my eyes

There's a scar on the hillside

And there's a scar on the hillside

And there's a scar on the hillside

And we pray for the rain

And the wind to drop

For the calm in the eye of the storm

There was cold in your bones

When the windows shook

Like the black smoke has

Blown from my eyes

There's a scar on the hillside

And there's a scar on the hillside

And there's a scar on the hillside
