Lyrics
0:19Before the bombs
0:23Before the walls came down
0:27We would lie in the Summer sun
0:32Watching the clouds pass one by one
0:37Before the fires
0:41Before the spools of barbed wire
0:45You said you would never forget
0:50What pierces deeper than the bayonet
0:54There's only one thing that'll save this place
0:58The only thing that they cannot face
1:03There's only one thing that they cannot take
1:08Love love
1:15Before the mobs
1:19Before the inside jobs
1:23Sleeping in on borrowed time
1:28Too distracted for the modern crimes
1:33Before the war
1:37Before the troops came ashore
1:42I held you deep in my arms
1:46A fool to think that they could save you from harm
1:50There's only one thing that'll save this place
1:55The only thing that they cannot face
1:59There's only one thing that they cannot take
2:04Love love
2:08There's only one thing that'll save this place
2:13The only thing that they cannot face
2:17There's only one thing that they cannot take
2:22Love love
2:26Love love
2:36Before the bomb
2:53There's only one thing that'll save this place
2:58The only thing that they cannot face
3:02There's only one thing that they cannot take
3:07Love love
3:12Love love
3:16Love love
3:21Love love
Before the bombs Before the walls came down We would lie in the Summer sun Watching the clouds pass one by one Before the fires Before the spools of barbed wire You said you would never forget What pierces deeper than the bayonet There's only one thing that'll save this place The only thing that they cannot face There's only one thing that they cannot take Love love Before the mobs Before the inside jobs Sleeping in on borrowed time Too distracted for the modern crimes Before the war Before the troops came ashore I held you deep in my arms A fool to think that they could save you from harm There's only one thing that'll save this place The only thing that they cannot face There's only one thing that they cannot take Love love There's only one thing that'll save this place The only thing that they cannot face There's only one thing that they cannot take Love love Love love Before the bomb There's only one thing that'll save this place The only thing that they cannot face There's only one thing that they cannot take Love love Love love Love love Love love
