Hole In The River-Darden Smith

There's a house on fire across town today

The neighborhood's a' glowing in the beautiful light

Somebody's life just went up in flames

Set of saucers and the picture frames

Embers turn to ashes to mud in tomorrow's rain

I heard the sirens calling like a pack of hounds

And I crawled up on the roof to look around

The flames were closer than I thought

Somebody I know just as likely as not

And embers turn to ashes right before your very nose

There's a hole in the river I'll jump through

Any hole in the river to make it back to you

Well now a careless flame and a faulty wire

It's been the cause of many a house on fire

Starts out slow and it spreads all around

Floors give way and the walls come down

Embers turn to ashes scatter on tomorrow's wind

There's a hole in the river I'll jump through

Any hole in the river to make it back to you

There's a hole in the river I'll jump through

Any hole in the river to make it back to you

The ashes of a lifetime they scatter on the wind

Land upon the river the river where we used to swim

I'm gonna crawl back on the roof while I've still got time

And look out over that horizon line

See if there's anything fresh and new

Out there for me and you

And I'll try to find the road to get there straight and true

There's a hole in the river I'll jump through

Any hole in the river to make it back to you

Hole in the river I'll jump through

Any hole in the river to make it back to you

Make it back to you

Make it back to you

Back to you
