Lost Our Way

from This Burning Sun by Peter Galperin

/

lyrics

(verse 1)
Whitecaps are rolling on the Hudson,
A strong surge is coming in from the south.
There’s a storm brewing in this river valley.
Something in the air says it’s gonna get rough.

The glaciers are melting, the seas are rising,
The climate is changing before our very eyes.
But we weren’t listening to the warnings.
It’s time to stop living on the waterline.

(chorus)
Now pack up all our belongings and head to higher ground.
Say goodbye to these sunny shores today.
Someday our children’s children will turn and look around,
and wonder how we lost our way.

(verse 2)
A howling wind blows through New York City.
Empty streets are flooded at every tide.
The forces of nature have finally taken over.
There’s nowhere here that we can hide.
