RThis month’s pick is a lyric written about the horror of the deluge in Bombay in August of 2005

After the storm - DK

It was just any other day the raindrops sang its lonely tune
The silvery clouds had turned into a deadly dark hue 
Nobody cared and nobody listened
The pretty young girl was yet to be christened
When the storm broke out she lost all that she’d got
The water took away her home, her dreams she had not
Trying to save them all her papa went down without her
She clutched on to his round golden ring

“Hold on to your dreams don’t wake up at night
Don’t let it go away with the break of light
As the clouds sail away a new day will dawn
The leaves always turn green after the storm”

When they awoke she had picked up and gone far away
Steady and strong ready to learn the tricks of the trade
She grew quite fast she no longer hard need try
Passport to heaven she was on the freeway oh my

When lasting pleasures withhold secrets to the stars
When romance slings your world out of hand
The whispering moon cries out in vain
She no longer could really remember his name

“Baby hold onto your dreams don’t wake up at night
Let the sunshine brighten your door, open it wide
Your heartbeat had missed a few seconds from his reach
After the storm the swift winds do subside.”

The lingering stars show her another way
She had forgotten to cry, she no longer wanted to anyway
She gently stretched herself moved to her side
She let the storm pass through her she felt peace inside

“Baby why did you dream on why did you try
You should have let yourself go you would not have had to cry
Prepare yourself for the dawn the storm had long since been gone
Another day yes just another day after the storm….”
