Hole In The River (Album Version)

歌詞

There's a house on fire across town today the neighborhood's a' glowing in the beautiful light Somebody's life just went up in flames set of saucers and the picture frames embers turn to ashes to mud in tomorrow's rain I heard the sirens calling like a pack of hounds And I crawled up on the roof to look around The flames were closer than I thought Somebody I know just as likely as not And embers turn to ashes right before your very nose There's a hole in the river I'll jump through Any hole in the river to make it back to you Well now a careless flame and a faulty wire It's been the cause of many a house on fire Starts out slow and it spreads all around Floors give way and the walls come down Embers turn to ashes, scatter on tomorrow's wind There's a hole in the river I'll jump through Any hole in the river to make it back to you There's a hole in the river I'll jump through Any hole in the river to make it back to you The ashes of a lifetime they scatter on the wind Land upon the river, the river where we used to swim I'm gonna crawl back on the roof while I've still got time And look out over that horizon line See if there's anything fresh and new Out there for me and you And I'll try to find the road to get there straight and true There's a hole in the river I'll jump through Any hole in the river to make it back to you Hole in the river I'll jump through Any hole in the river to make it back to you Make it back to you Make it back to you Back to you
