River Rise (feat. Michael McDonald)

It's late in California

The voices are speaking low

And the winds line up

Point the direction they wanna go

The cold is hanging on now

The heat will be here soon

And those same old thoughts

Coming back around like a black moon

Let the river rise

Open up the skies

Not gonna wash away

Let the waters come down

Turn around into a fortress

Let the river rise

Open up the sky

Time won't slip away

Let the clock run out

Don't care about it, not today

The golden light surrounding

A sea of humanity

And the wind has its own language

Spoken by the trees

Diamonds shine forever

Underneath the twilight sky

As the day grows near

I start to believe always one more try

Let the river rise

Open up the skies

Not gonna wash away

Let the waters come down

Turn around into a fortress

Let the river rise

Open up the sky

Time won't slip away

Let the clock run out

Don't care about it, not today

Coming in too fast

For an easy landing

It's out of my heart

It's out of my head

It's out of my hands

Let the river rise

Open up the skies

Not gonna wash away

Let the waters come down

Turn around into a fortress

Let the river rise

Open up the sky

Time won't slip away

Let the clock run out

Don't care about it, not today

Let the river rise

Let the clock run out (Let the clock run out)

Let the river rise (Let it rise, yeah)

Let the clock run out
