River's Rising

Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide.

No relief from the risin' tide.

Somethin' in the way of the world has changed,

broken apart and rearranged.



Chorus:

And the river's risin'.

Rain keeps pourin' down.

And the river's risin'.

Oh, take me to a higher ground.



Not too little and much too late.

Courting disaster and tempting fate.

Goin' against all natural laws,

putting effect before the cause.



Chorus



When will I see the sun shine again?

When will this darkness come to an end?

Watchin' and waitin', the flood waters rise,

I can't believe what's before my eyes.



Chorus
