I know when they built this house Out of rocks from the river mouth They thought it'd never come down Not while we're around Some things are made to last Other things we know must pass Nothing we do Stops time coming through My father left me here with a map crumpled in my hand I try to follow, but some days I just don't understand And when we fall down in time Washed in trouble we thought we'd left behind I let the river carry you Work your way back up to the clearer view See the high water starting to flood Bringing down all the rocks and the mud If it won't stop Wash away all we've got Down in the valley there's a rumble in the trees It's hard to keep your head when the ground's moving 'neath your feet And when we fall down in time Washed in trouble we thought we'd left behind I let the river carry you Lift your head back up to the clearer view I see all the winds of time Swirling 'round where your face still shines How can I stop So close to the top My father left me here with a map crumpled in my hand I try to follow, but some days I just don't understand When we fall down in time Washed in trouble we thought we'd left behind I let the river carry you Work your way back up to the clearer view
