This little town has had its share tonight
They're always on the run
The fight inside never died
Dry tears from everyone

Waters rising, rivers rising
Waters rising and no one can defy it
Rivers rising
It's such a cold old world

This windowpane has seen it all before
No hope for no one
This little town has run aground
Golden ground for no one

Waters rising, rivers rising
Waters rising and no one can defy it
Rivers rising
It's such a cold old world

Waters rising, rivers rising
Waters rising and no one can defy it
Rivers rising
It's such a cold old world

Waters rising, rivers rising
Waters rising and no one can defy it
Rivers rising
It's such a cold old world
