Lyrics
Wind is howling at the door Rain is sideways on the floor Candles lit and blankets down Typhoon night in our small town Shutters closed and tape on glass Radio says this will pass Pot of rice and tea is hot We have everything we've got Let it blow, we're inside Let it roar, we're alive Shutters down, lights out, stay Wait with me till the dawn of day Neighbours knock with candles too Share a song and share the view Thunder rolls across the roof We don't need another proof Let it blow, we're inside Let it roar, we're alive Shutters down, lights out, stay Wait with me till the dawn of day Quiet now, the eye is here Soft and still and sky is clear Hold my hand and breathe Let it blow, we're inside Let it roar, we're alive Shutters down, lights out, stay Wait with me till the dawn of day Stay, stay Wait with me till the dawn of day
