Before The Deluge Lyrics - Late For The Sky - Jackson Browne

Some of them were dreamers 

And some of them were fools 

Who were making plans and thinking of the future 

With the energy of the innocent 

They were gathering the tools 

They would need to make their journey back to nature 

 

While the sand slipped through the opening 

And their hands reached for the golden ring 

When their hearts they turned to each other's hearts for refuge 

In the troubled years that came before the deluge 

 

Some of them knew pleasure 

And some of them knew pain 

And for some of them it was only the moment that mattered 

And on the brave and crazy wings of youth 

They went flying around in the rain 

And their feathers, once so fine, grew torn and tattered

And in the end they traded their tired wings 

For the resignation that living brings 

And exchanged love's bright and fragile glow 

For the glitter and the rouge 

And in a moment they were swept before the deluge 

 

Let the music keep our spirits high 

Let the buildings keep our children dry 

Let creation reveal its secrets by and by, by and by 

When the light that's lost within us reaches the sky 

 

Some of them were angry 

At the way the earth was abused 

By the men who learned how to forge her beauty into power 

And they struggled to protect her from them 

Only to be confused 

By the magnitude of her fury in the final hour 

 

Photos 

 

And when the sand was gone and the time arrived 

In the naked dawn only a few survived 

And in attempts to understand a thing so simple and so huge 

Believed that they were meant to live after the deluge 

 

Let the music keep our spirits high 

Let the buildings keep our children dry 

Let creation reveal it's secrets by and by, by and by 

When the light that's lost within us reaches the sky
