Dragonlight Observatory - When Lyrics

When the world had turned to dust
The trees to ash and buildings rust
The oceans boiled in the sun
And there was nowhere left to run
When the Earth was on its knees
Volcanic ruptures and disease
I took the first ship to the moon
That November afternoon
I never wanted things to change
I couldn't take a world so strange
I know there's nothing left to say
Except I hope to be back someday
When the fires all burn out
Once I learn what I'm about
If the rivers find their way back through
That's when I'll come back to you
When the rivers find their way back through
That's when I'll come back to you
