Tide’s rising, bridge is out
You hear warning from a liar’s mouth
Storm’s coming, heading south
Drowning silhouettes as the color washes out

Don’t wait too long (It’s too late)
Both roads lead back to the same old mistake
But do they want for more on the opposite shore?
Are their skies a brighter blue or are they just like you?

You’re the only one by the river who don’t fear the rain
Waiting on the sun to deliver as the clouds come darken the plain
Haze in the sky, you’re not sure why, don’t that seem strange?
You’re the only one by the river who don’t fear the rain

Wind’s blowing, skies are gray
Overcast means no work today
Storm’s coming, hard to say
Words an honest man might have to betray
Time’s ticking, power’s out
A fortune’s worth of debts to mount
Storm’s coming, reaping doubt
Still no harvest when a flood ends the drought

Don’t wait too long (we don’t know)
You planted them too far down and now it won’t grow
But do they want for more on the opposite shore?
Are their greens a deeper hue or could it all be true?

You’re the only one by the river who don’t fear the rain
Waiting on the sun to deliver as the clouds come to darken the plain
Haze in the sky, you’re not sure why but today, it might be a strange one
You’re the only one by the river who don’t fear the flood when the rain comes

From inside it’s just like dusk all day

You’re the only one by the river who don’t fear the rain
Waiting on the sun to deliver as the clouds come to darken the plain
Haze in the sky, you’re not sure why but this year sure feels like a strange one
You’re the only one by the river who don’t fear the flood when the rain comes
