Here in the calm after the storm
[Post-Chorus]
Oooh, after all that we’ve been through
There ain’t nothin’ new
Here in the calm after the storm
[Bridge]

Down this broken line
Maybe you can find me

[Chorus]
Oooh, skies are black and blue
Thinking about you
Here in the calm after the storm
[Outro]
There ain’t nothing new
Here in the calm after the storm
