lyrics

The night of the storm
We became them liars
We followed the brave ones
In a search for answers

We found our middle ground

I don’t know how to live by your side
I won’t go and leave everyone behind ‘cause they won’t know

Conquer the waves until the engine breaks until the wind subsides
Never before have I felt this way so long Orleans let me go
Sail on, so long my friend

It’s finally over
Somebody call me out
Somebody calm me down
It’s finally over
Somebody call me out
Somebody calm me down
It’s finally over
So calm me down
