When The Thunder Comes Lyrics - Roger Daltrey

I've been thinking about the time that we're spending here 

Refuges in a world gone cold 

The voice of reason can't seem to find a listening ear 

The vote is out, the bell still tolls 

I can't shake this feeling 

We're crawling closer to the edge 

Yet we still go out, walk about, chit and chatter 

Let the problems of the world go by 

I don't really want to wake up to the pitter patter 

Of little bombs falling from the sky

Tell me that we're really all strangers 

Tell me I'm not right 

Tell me that there isn't any danger 

Tell me in the dark of the night 

When the thunder comes 

From distant drums 

The winds will blow 

The dreams of man into the indigo 

There's got to be a way to stop it! Stop it! 

Cause there's no turning back once we cross that line 

And all your money in the right pocket 

Can't buy you any time 

A chilling wind feels so near 

Will I live to meet my darkest fears 

When the thunder comes 

From distant drums 

The winds will blow 

The dreams of man into the indigo 

Photos 

We'll see the shifting of sands 

And the fall of mighty lands 

Great peace will finally dawn 

As we meet our maker 

When the thunder comes 

When the thunder comes 

From distant drums 

We'll all be one When the thunder comes 

The winds will blow 

The dreams of man into the indigo 

When the thunder comes, thunder comes, thunder comes
