New River - The Oh Hellos
It took forever and a day for the canyon's and coasts to erode away
By the weight of the ocean's cyclical motion they swayed
And though the eons may pass as slow as the sands of an hourglass
Every grain that we've counted claims that even the mountains can change
Let it come down let it come down
Let it make in you a new river
Let it come down let it come down
Let it make in you a new river
I know the winds from the south have the waves riled up
Like a hungry mouth
And your stomach goes hollow at the thought that
It could swallow you whole
Well it'll rain for forty days and nights and nothing
You do can slow the rising tides
But the river takes her shape from every tempest she abides
And like her you'll be made new again
Let it come down let it come down
Let it make in you a new river
Let it come down let it come down
Let it make in you a new river
Let it come down let it come down
Let it make in you a new river
Let it come down let it come down
Let it make in you a new river
Let it come down let it come down
Let it make in you a new river
Let it come down let it come down
Let it make in you a new river
