Willing

The California fires are burning

Every road leads south is closed

Oh my love is waiting for me

How I'll make it to Santa Cruz

God knows

There's a river that runs all the way down

I think I can make it by moonlight

People say I must be crazy

But the fire's closing in

And it's time to begin

And no fear no fright no nothings gonna stop me

Being with you tonight

'Cause I'm willing

To swim to Santa Cruz

Willing, just to be there with you

Willing, to make it to Santa Cruz, yeah

Climb into the water

Sweet courage find me now

The rivers cold against the heat of the fire

So let the tide take me there

Cause there's nothing I won't bear

To be with you is a crazy move

But Baby I don't care

Cause I'm willing

To swim to Santa Cruz

Willing, just to be there with you

Willing, to make it to Santa Cruz, yeah

Oh, the aching soul

Oh, never have I felt so scared and lonely yet so free

Suddenly so free

And Oh, the aching soul

Oh, never knew 'til now how much I really want to live

So much more to give

Oh God this river is so cold

Feel like I'm losing all control

Can't keep my head above the water

And the darkness fills the night

And my soul

Tired, I'm so tired

Please Baby know that I tried

Looks like this river might own me

And I know it's too late

When my heart calls I obey

Just know I was willing, I really tried

To be with you tonight

Willing, to swim to Santa Cruz

Willing, just to be there with you

Willing, to make it to Santa Cruz, yeah

Baby Baby, I'm gonna make it
