Before the Dawn

Thought I saw you smile

Underneath you were frowning

Thought I saw you wave

But you must have been drowning

What's a rose without a thorn

What is calm without a storm

I can't say I know what you're going through

I know you won't find peace without a war

The finest silk can still be torn

And it's always darkest right before the dawn

So keep your head up

Keep your head up

My love

When you feel alone

And the room is overcrowded

I want you to know

You can talk to me about it, darling, yeah

What's a rose without a thorn

What is calm without a storm

I can't say I know what you're going through

I know you won't find peace without a war

The finest silk can still be torn

And it's always darkest right before the dawn

So keep your head up

Keep your head up

My love

Too many words going unspoken

And oh my door will always be open

What's a heart if it's never been broken

What's a rose without a thorn

What is calm without a storm

And I can't say I know what you're going through

I know you won't find peace without a war

The finest silk can still be torn

And it's always darkest right before the dawn

So keep your head up

Keep your head up

My love

Keep your head up

Keep your head up

My love
