The coldest night came in in Spring
The final frost was laid again
We draft the roof
Froze the shoes
Killed the flowers
and stole the colour from the sun.
Oh let the river in
Burst the dams and start again.
Oh let the river in
The will of men can't hold it in.
Oh let the river in
As the blood beneath my skin.
Let the river in
Nature plays, nature wins.

You held on to my hands like a vice
Turn the screw, turn them white
But there's a point there's a limit where we brake
Couldn't find if it's the quickest way.
So let the river in
Burst the dams and start again.
Oh let the river in
The will of men can't hold it in.
Oh let the river in
As the blood beneath my skin.
Let the river in
Nature plays, nature wins.
Ooooooohhhh...
Oh let the river in
Burst the dams and start again.
Oh let the river in
The will of men can't hold it in.
Oh let the river in
As the blood beneath my skin.
Let the river in
Nature plays, nature wins.
