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 there's days when I just don't understand   And when we fall down in time   washed in trouble we thought we'd left behind   Just let the river carry you   Lift your head back up to the clearer view   See the high water starting to flood   Bringing down all the rocks and the mud   And if it won't stop   It'll 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   Let the storm pass on through   And work your way back up to the clearer view
