Lyrics
7. NOTRE DAME IS BURNING
(Music & Lyric by Louis Rosen)
Notre Dame is burning
Flames consume the air
Gargoyles shake and
Timbers quake and
Hearts break everywhere
Heartbreak everywhere
Bangladesh is drowning
Rains flood silt and sand
Earth walls fail and
Cyclones wail and
Heartache fills the land
Heartache in the land
Roma once was burning
Nero fanned the flame
Large and small, all empires fall
With just themselves to blame
No one else to blame
Atlantis once was drowning
Seaquakes shook the air
All went under
Now we wonder
Were those islands there?
Were those people really there?
America is burning
Arson from within
Through the mire we’ll
Fight the fire, but
Where do we begin?
Where do we begin - begin?
Where do we begin?
Notre Dame is burning
Flames consume the air
Heartbreak everywhere
