Sky's turning black  I gotta make this happen  Please bring her back  And if you do this for me  Timber by timber  Stone by stone  With your strength I know we'll rebuild    She left me in a panic  I've taking way too much for granted  She said I can't stand this  I have to let go  You know I'd never leave you  But this river is too strong  I can't hold on anymore    I called her name  Cursed the rain  Used my anger all my pain  Gave it all I had  But her hand slipped away  I tried to swim, broke a limb  I held on tightly to our son  I didn't wanna go on  so I prayed    Many days have passed  And I've managed to last  It's time I've accepted she's gone  But I need your resistance  To fight this is reasistance  You know I can do it  But I can't do it alone    Waters rising  People crying  Oh and I just keep on trying  To help who I can  But there comes no relief  My heart is breaking  My body is shaking  My God, have my country forsaken me  Forsaken me    Sky's turning black  And I just gotta make this happen  Please bring her back  And if you do this for me    Timber by timber  Stone by stone  In your strength I know   We'll rebuild    Sky's turning black  I gotta make this happen  Please bring her back  If you do this for me  Timber by timber  Stone by stone  With your strength, in my bones  We'll rebuild  New Orleans  Oh, New Orleans  Left me in a panic  Taking way too much for granted  I have to let go    these lyrics are submitted by Sofie
