When the Piper Calls

China Crisis is an English pop/rock band. They were formed in 1979 in Kirkby, near Liverpool, Merseyside with a core of vocalist/keyboardist Gary Daly and guitarist Eddie Lundon. Their output was pop music similar in style to that of New Wave but with strong similarities to the post-punk movement of the early 1980s, namely inclusion of a broader range of musical influences and occasional flirtation with political commentary.[citation needed] Throughout their career, China Crisis has seen moderate success in the United Kingdom with ten hit singles between August 1982 and January 1987 and six albums, as well as commercial success in Western Europe, Australia and the Americas. more »

Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

Water drenched people
Take me in from the rain
To a warm kind of heaven
Where it's shining again

I've seen some faces
Some old and some gray
But just like water
I let them slip away

And if I tumble
And if I tumble

[Chorus]
When morning comes
I harvest my thoughts
They spread like plague
I hear them call

The bread in our mouths
The dirt on our hands
When she calls

And if I tumble
And if I tumble

I found a silent dream
And held it for a day
But just like water
I let it slip away

[Chorus]
