Dido - Day Before We Went To War lyrics

[Dido - Day Before We Went To War lyrics]

All the pictures on the wall
The sand lying on the floor
The bed upstairs still unmade
The dust float in the light
The people just left all laughter and mess
Forgetting this and that and rushing back
The front door open
The music still playing in one room
Down the hall towels on the floor
And then it's quiet just the bees and birds
The summer haze of the trees
And the air feeds it all feeds it all

We can all feel it
Like a light hand on your back welcoming you
We can all feel it
Like a light hand on your back welcoming you

The day before we went to war
The day before we went to war
We can all feel it



All the parasols and kids at play
The sea so still and calm
Blue as the cloudless sky
Just the gentle hum of the summers goings on
Broken by the sudden rush of two planes
Flying low and fast into the sun
Into the sun

We can all feel it
Like a light hand on your back welcoming you
We can all feel it
Like a light hand on your back welcoming you

The day before we went to war
The day before we went to war
We can all feel it

We can all feel it
Like a light hand on your back welcoming you
We can all feel it
Like a light hand on your back welcoming you

The day before we went to war
The day before we went to war
The day before we went to war
