After the end when he tells her he loves her |
|
She promises not to let go |
|
They hold on to hope |
|
It all begins with the end |
|
Everything started within |
|
One or two seconds of a siren |
|
Sounding over city limits singing |
|
Wind over water whipping |
|
A hurricane head long lifting |
|
A tidal wave inland tipping |
|
Was the final early warning |
|
After the end when he tells her he loves her |
|
She promises not to let go |
|
They hold on to hope |
|
Before the ending began |
|
Bottom lines and broken budgets |
|
Dead ends |
|
All the early signs are in the writing |
|
Catastrophic changes in the offing |
|
Radical callers kept lines tied up at radio stations |
|
Argument or conversation |
|
Cut quick to commercial nation |
|
...and after the end when he tells her he loves her |
|
She promises not to let go |
|
They hold on to hope |
|
Welcome to the dawning of a new age |
|
Headline in 1953, full page |
|
President is speaking at the U.N. |
|
Preaching of the promise of our progress |
|
Atomic piece of mind from a radioactive life line |
|
Millennia in the making; utopiannihilation |
|
...and after the end when he tells her he loves her |
|
She promises not to let go |
|
They hold on to hope |
