[Verse 1]
Motorola was the pebble phone
And all your cigarettes were Marlboro
Orange shadows on the way back home
All the memories our castle holds
When heavy hearts were not unusual
I'd have to meet you at the corner shop
All the years that I spent indigo
My father's arms were indestructible
[Pre-Chorus]
When it all falls, when it all falls down
Tame your teardrops, never doubt
When it all falls, when it all falls down
You call me and I'll be round
[Chorus]
Even in the darkest hour
You know where to turn
Even in the stormy weather
You have got my word
Ooh, don't let the hurricane sweep you like this
Don't bet another hand
'Cause even in the darkest hour you know where we stand
[Bridge]
Da, da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da, da
[Verse 2]
I keep my dancing so traditional
'Cause Jesus, Mary, Joseph told me so
I'm soaked in wisdom every Wednesday night
And every other day don't feel as bright
[Pre-Chorus]
When it all falls, when it all falls down
Tame your teardrops, never doubt
When it all falls, when it all falls down
You call me and I'll be round
[Chorus]
Even in the darkest hour you know where to turn
Even in the stormy weather you have got my word
O-oh, don't let the hurricane sweep you like this
Don't bet another hand
'Cause even in the darkest hour you know where we stand
[Outro]
Da, da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da, da (Oh no)
Da, da, da, da, da, da
Know where
Know where

I wrote this song for my dad. This is about my parents growing up with me, about children growing up too quickly but most importantly, loyalty.
