Artist/Band: Iron Maiden
Lyrics for Song: When The Wild Wind Blows
Lyrics for Album: En Vivo! [2012]



Have you heard what they said on the news today

Have you heard what is coming to us all?

That the world as we know it will be coming to an end

Have you heard, have you heard?



He sees them in the distance when the darkened clouds roll

He could feel tension in the atmosphere

He would look in the mirror, see an old man now

Does it matter they survive somehow



They said there's nothing can be done about the situation

They said there's nothing you can do at all

To sit and wait around for something to occur

Did you know, did you know?



As he stares across the garden looking at the meadows

Wonders if they'll ever grow again

The desperation of the situation getting graver

Getting ready when the wild wind blows



Have you seen what they said on the news today

Have you heard what they said about us all

Do you know what is happening to just every one of us

Have you heard, have you heard?



There will be a catastrophe the like we've never seen

There will be something that will light the sky

That the world as we know it, it will never be the same

Did you know, did you know?



He carries everything into the shelter not a fuss

Getting ready when the moment comes

He has enough supplies to last them for a year or two

Good to have because you never know



They tell us nothing that we don't already know about

They tell us nothing that is real at all

They only fill us with the stuff that they want

Did you know, did you know?



He's nearly finished with the preparations for the day

He's getting tired; that'll do for now

They are preparing for the very worst to come to them

Getting ready when the wild wind blows



He sees the picture on the wall, it's falling down

Upside down

He sees a teardrop from his wife roll down her face,

Saying Grace

Remember times they had, they flash right through his mind

Left behind

Of a lifetime spent together long ago

Will be gone



They've been preparing for some weeks now

For when the crucial moment comes

To take their refuge in the shelter

Let them prepare for what will come



They make a tea and sit there waiting

They're in the shelter feeling snug

Not long to wait for absolution

Don't make a fuss; just sit and wait



Can't believe all the lying,

All the screens are denying

That the moments of truth have begun



Can't you see it on the T.V.?

Don't believe them in the least bit

Now the days of our ending have begun



Say a prayer when it's all over

Survivors unite, all as one

Got to try and help each other

Got the will to overcome



I can't believe all the lying,

All the screens are denying

That the moments of truth have begun



Can't you see it on the T.V.?

Don't believe them in the least bit

Now the days of our ending have begun



When they found them, had their arms wrapped around each other

Their tins of poison laying near by their clothes

The day they both mistook an earthquake for the fallout,

Just another when the wild wind blows...
