Her world collapsed early Sunday morning

She got up from the kitchen table

Folded the newspaper and silenced the radio

Those creatures jumped the barricades

And have headed for the sea, sea



Oh........



Those creatures jumped the barricades

And have headed for the sea

She began to breathe

To breathe at the thought of this freedom

Stood and whispered to her child, belong

She held the child and whispered

With calm, calm; belong



Oh........



She stood and whispered to her child, belong

She held the child and whispered

With calm, calm; belong



Oh........



Those barricades can only hold for so long

Her world collapsed early Sunday morning

She took the child held tight

Opened the window

A breath, this song, how long

And knew, knew; belong

Oh.......
