When the wind picked up |
| [00:11.910] |
and the fire spread |
| [00:13.730] |
and the grapevines seemed left for dead. |
| [00:17.860] |
And the northern sky, like the end of day, |
| [00:21.600] |
the end of days. |
| [00:25.470] |
A wake up call to a rancid room |
| [00:28.870] |
Sounded like an alarm of impending doom. |
| [00:33.100] |
To warn us it's only a matter of time. |
| [00:38.930] |
Before we all burn |
| [00:46.720] |
before we all burn |
| [00:54.430] |
before we all burn |
| [01:02.220] |
before we all burn. |
| [01:12.040] |
We bought some wine and some paper cups |
| [01:15.530] |
near your daughter's school when we picked her up |
| [01:19.780] |
and drove to a cemetery on a hill |
| [01:23.780] |
on a hill. |
| [01:27.520] |
And we watched the plumes paint the sky gray |
| [01:31.240] |
and she laughed and dance through the field of grays |
| [01:35.300] |
there i knew it would be alright |
| [01:39.220] |
that everything would be alright, |
| [01:48.870] |
would be alright |
| [01:56.700] |
would be alright |
| [02:04.390] |
would be alright. |
| [02:14.130] |
and the news reports on the radio |
| [02:18.430] |
said it was getting worse |
| [02:21.840] |
as the ocean air fanned the flame. |
| [02:29.450] |
but i couldn't think of anywhere i would have rather been |
| [02:37.440] |
to watch it all burn away. |
| [02:43.230] |
to burn away. |
| [03:46.850] |
the firemen worked in double shifts, |
| [03:50.780] |
with prayers for rain on their lips |
| [03:54.820] |
and they knew it was only a matter of time. |
