Pat Benatar - Out Of The Ruins Lyrics
It began as a summer just like the restHopeful and filled with emotionLovers enjoying their sweet conquestsPledging undying devotionHe felt the warm winds encircle his heart;Softly, gently caressing all of his beingEvery part, his love for her was unendingShe was all that he dreamed of all of his lifeFor her there was no otherHappy were they as man and wifeHappy were they that summerBut all that it seemed was not meant to be,The world was lost in indifferenceAnd what began as a small incident ended up as hellThen without warning all that they knewEverything they'd been together was taken away,Swift and cruel on that terrible night in summerOut of the ruins he called her nameEchoing over and overSilently waiting, but no one cameOut of the ruins that summerBut all that it seemed was not meant to beThe world was lost in indifferenceAnd what began as a small incident ended up as hellOut of the ruins he walked aloneEmpty and broken foreverWith nothing left but the sweet memoryOf how it began that summer
