Rivers, Rains and Runaway Trains

Made myself a list, checked it twice

As I've never been the kind to roll the dice

I took an extra turn on the thoroughfare

To avoid all risk and doubt and still get me there

Calculated odds and likelihood

Through every preparation the way I should

Just when I start to feel like I'm on a roll

How can it be, in one glance, I've lost control?

Rivers and rains and runaway trains

The rushing and racing of hurricanes

The forces of nature that nothing restrains

Rivers and rains and runaway trains

Solid as a rock, set in my ways

Until I caught a glimpse of your green-eyed gaze

Running through the numbers, and my head says no

Statistics, they shatter, and my heart says go

Rivers and rains and runaway trains

The rushing and racing of hurricanes

The forces of nature that nothing restrains

Rivers and rains and runaway trains

My steady beats stumble

The heavens, they rumble

The earth shook below the ground

I try to speak but mumble

My senses, they crumble

The second you came around

Like rivers and rains and runaway trains

The rushing and racing of hurricanes

The forces of nature that nothing restrains

Rivers and rains and runaway trains

Rivers and rains and runaway trains
