The Flood
Take That
The Flood (Original Version)
Standing on the edge of forever
At the start of whatever
Shouting love at the world
Back then we were like cavemen
But we mapped the moon and the stars
Then we forgave them
We will meet you where the lights are
The defenders of the faith we are
When the thunder turns around they'll run so hard
We'll tear the ground away
You know no one dies
In these love drowned eyes
Through our love drowned eyes
We'll watch you sleep tonight
Chorus:
Although no one understood
We were holding back the flood
Learning how to dance the rain
We were holding back the flood
They said we'd never dance again
Bleeding, but none of us leaving
Wash your mouth son or
You'll find yourself floating home
Here we come now, on a dark star
Seeing demons, not what we are
Tiny minds and eager hands will try to strike
But none will land today
There's progress now
Where there once was none
Where there once was none
Then everything came along (Came along)
Although no one understood
We were holding back the flood
Learning how to dance the rain
There was more of them than us
Now they’ll never dance again
Although no one understood
There was more of them than us
Learning how to dance the rain
We were holding back the flood
They said we’ll never dance again
We will meet you where the lights are
The defenders of the faith we are
When the thunder turns around they'll run so hard
We'll tear the ground away
Although no one understood
There was more of them than us
Learning how to dance the rain (Learning how to dance the rain)
There was more of them than us
Now they'll never dance again
Now we'll never dance again
