The thunder clashed on the dreary day And the house became a cave Every light was off in sight And our shadows became our slaves The streets were empty with doom As we locked ourselves in a room And the shutters couldn’t be saved But as we watched our home be torn By the dreadful New England storm We knew we had to be brave

Shutters, Shadows, Shelter
The thunder clashed on the dreary day And the house became a cave Every light was off in sight And our shadows became our slaves The streets were empty with doom As we locked ourselves in a room And the shutters couldn’t be saved But as we watched our home be torn By the dreadful New England storm We knew we had to be brave
