about

Written by Sam Carter
Arr. Carter / Nadel / Ridley

lyrics

Where oh where can I go now
Where oh where can I go now
When the waves and tremors come
There’s nothing that can be done
Waves and tremors tore the buildings down

Waves and tremors tore the building down
I watched as a river full of rubble raise them to the ground
When the waves and tremors come
There’s nothing that can be done
Where oh where are my family now

Where oh where are my family now
I’m five miles west of Fukushima staring at a big black cloud
When the waves and tremors come

There’s nothing that can be done
Waves and tremors tore the buildings down
Waves and tremors tore the buildings down
