This song was written in April 2020, London went from a heaving metropolis to a ghost town and all the emotions witnessing the way life was unfolding then came through.
lyrics
When the sun comes up for another day,
And everything familiar has gone away,
No one on the streets stay at home they say,
No planes in the sky,
No Birds that fly,
The animals are happy coz they're feeling free,
No cars to run them over and a cleaner sea,
All because a virus with a crown is here,
Trying to fill each human with a sense of fear,
And nobody is certain of this twist of fate,
No one goes to work money ain't that great,
It's almost too much for us to contemplate,
Where our lives will go we just don't know but,
Chorus,
Fortune favours the brave,
Take my hand let's walk together,
There's a world we can save,
We'll make it through this stormy weather x2
When we kiss our dreams goodbye,
As they float on out of sight,
And we trust our hearts desires to the stars we see at night,
And the life we thought we knew is a million miles away,
And there's nothing you can say,
It's not happening today,
So we start to turn things round,
Coz it's time for us to thrive,
Find the strength we know we have
Coz it's good to be alive,
It's a chance for us to grow,
To take our inner wheel,
Walk in love and trust and faith,
And let the Universe reveal.
Chorus
Fortune favours the brave,
Take my hand let's walk together,
There's a world we can save,
We'll make it through this stormy weather, x2
Bridge
When our ducks were all lined up,
And they've all gone for a swim,
And we're wondering what kind of world we're truly living in,
All illusions are so bright,
As the truth becomes so clear,
We can find the strength to rise above and say goodbye to fear,
Now we know what really counts,
And it all comes from the heart,
We are here to shine as sovereign beings from the very start,
When we honour who we are,
And we walk away from shame,
We allow our world to truly rise as one again coz,
Chorus
Fortune favours the brave,
Take my hand let's walk together,
There's a world we can save,
We'll make it through this stormy weather x2
