The Citizens - Avalanche City

I can see the rainclouds over

The grey chased away the colors

It’s hailing and storming all on the citizens

Leaving them running for their umbrellas

Hold on, hold on

She said to me

Won’t be long, won’t be long

'Til we all will see

The colors will return to their owners

And citizens emerge from the covers

I can see the fear take over

Hearts hardened to the sound of closeness

It’s aching and pounding all on the citizens

Leaving them wishing they had a lover

Hold on, hold on

She said to me

Won’t be long, won’t be long

'Til we all will see

The lovers will emerge from their silence

And citizens return from their covers

And the lights on the streets go dark

But all the heaviness is in my heart

And the colors on the leaves are grey

But I hold heaven in my heart today

And the rainclouds begin to pour

And the greyness defeats us all

And I know she said that it’s okay

But I’ll take anything she will say
