Lyrics
Wasn't long ago when everything was sunny
Wasn't long ago the skies were sapphire blue
And we both know most things never last
That's why we cherish things that do
Wasn't long ago a silent storm was brewing
So far off that none of us could see
It came and blew away our future
Left us to rake through the debris
And I will be there
When the walls come crashing in
To help you up and start to build it once again
Well, I will be there
Yeah, you know I will
The floods will never touch us
Safe here on our little hill
Someday those stormy skies will clear
And I will be here
Wasn't long ago you told me you were worried
Wasn't long ago you said you were afraid
Could our love survive this hurricane of trouble
But it's not the end, my love, 'cause trouble never stays
