Her world collapsed early Sunday morning She got up from the kitchen table Folded the newspaper and silenced the radio Those creatures jumped the barricades And have headed for the sea, sea Ooh Ooh Those creatures jumped the barricades And have headed for the sea She began to breathe To breathe at the thought of such freedom Stood and whispered to her child, belong She held the child and whispered With calm, calm, belong Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh She stood and whispered to her child, belong She held the child and whispered With calm, calm, belong Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Those barricades can only hold for so long Her world collapsed early Sunday morning She took the child held tight Opened the window A breath, this song, how long And knew, knew, belong Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
