Lyrics :
Black crows circling up above crying out do you hear that sound
I never thought it would come to this paradise razed to the ground
Sometimes i don't sleep at night i hear the wind in the moaning trees
I wonder how my child will fare with wars and bombs and thieves
The thunder has begun
Some are blind but choose to see lies into the truth they weave
Some put their trust in faith some say I don’t believe
But each man unto himself is an island in a raging sea
With a boat to anchor or sail of the two which will it be
The thunder has begun
A storm is going to come
Who's the one out watching you who says your rights are wrong
When the preacher and the judge are lying a change is coming it wont be long
We may have burnt a bridge too far we may have run ourselves too fast
When you look into the mirror friend what is that you want to ask
The thunder has begun
Dear father when you left me here you lay your head in eternal sleep
You taught me only love remains and love is all we have to keep
Black crows circling up above crying out do you hear that sound
I never thought it would come to this paradise razed to the ground
The thunder has begun
A storm is going to come find a haven find a shelter
A storm is going to come find a port find a harbour
A storm is going to come find a friend find a lover
A storm is going to come find a sister find a brother
Black crows circling up above crying out do you hear that sound
I never thought it would come to this paradise razed to the ground
Sometimes i don't sleep at night i hear the wind in the moaning trees
I wonder how my child will fare with wars and bombs and thieves
The thunder has begun
Some are blind but choose to see lies into the truth they weave
Some put their trust in faith some say I don’t believe
But each man unto himself is an island in a raging sea
With a boat to anchor or sail of the two which will it be
The thunder has begun
A storm is going to come
Who's the one out watching you who says your rights are wrong
When the preacher and the judge are lying a change is coming it wont be long
We may have burnt a bridge too far we may have run ourselves too fast
When you look into the mirror friend what is that you want to ask
The thunder has begun
Dear father when you left me here you lay your head in eternal sleep
You taught me only love remains and love is all we have to keep
Black crows circling up above crying out do you hear that sound
I never thought it would come to this paradise razed to the ground
The thunder has begun
A storm is going to come find a haven find a shelter
A storm is going to come find a port find a harbour
A storm is going to come find a friend find a lover
A storm is going to come find a sister find a brother

Piers Faccini France
If my songs were maps I'd want them to stretch from the English moors to the Saharan dunes via the plains of the Mediterranean.
