lyrics

MALDIVES

The water’s rising—not this minute minute—
the flood is years away. 
My son  you’ll live to see it take our home.
No, don’t lose hope in great nations of earth 
to come up with something that we haven’t yet heard (…come up…yeah)

The water’s eating  sweet paradise— 
the hills are leached to stone. 
Today we’re living sweet memories of home.
No, don’t run home, no, don’t pack up your things. 
Someone will save you, hold on to belief …in science…treaties…plans…

Oh, oh
Don’t cry, don’t cry
There’s time, there’s time
Love shall defend, love shall defend

The tide is taking  the island with it 
every little bit of home 
I won’t be here to stop your panic so carry on
