Lyrics

[00:19.86] Moving down the water
[00:24.35] John is drifting out of sight,
[00:28.03] It's only at the turning point
[00:31.80] That you find out how to fight.
[00:37.14] In the cold, feel the cold
[00:40.28] all around
[00:45.03] And the rush of crashing water
[00:49.21] Surround me with its sound.
[00:54.43] Striking out to reach you,
[00:58.42] I can't get through to the other side.
[01:02.68] When you're racing in the rapids
[01:06.24] There's only one way, that's to ride.
[01:12.04] Taken down, taken down
[01:14.77] by the undertow
[01:19.67] And I'm spiralled down the river bed,
[01:24.92] My fire is burning low.
[01:29.24] Catching hold of a rock that's firm,
[01:33.49] I'm waiting for John to be carried past.
[01:37.99] We hold together and shoot the rapids fast.
[01:47.42] And when the waters slow down
[01:52.13] The dark and the deep
[01:55.34] have no-one left to keep.
[02:04.96] Hang on John! We're out of this at last.
[02:12.12] Something's changed, that's not your face.
[02:16.86] It's mine!
[02:18.70] It's mine!
