Lyrics for Raging Waters
Everyone gets tired In spite of plans being made Nobody wants to slow down This showdown is set for dawn I'm gonna meet that villain And tell him the race is on I'll say that Lovers cross the raging waters Lovers walk the burning sand Lovers stop the time in order To take their moments in their hands Lovers toss away a kingdom Lovers abdicate the crown Lovers fight for love and freedom Breaking the chains That hold 'em down You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on You gotta keep on You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on Loving lovers You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on You gotta keep on You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on Didn't I say? Lovers cross the raging waters (raging waters) Lovers walk the burning sand (burning sand) Lovers stop the time in order (in order) To take their moments in their hands (their hands) Lovers toss away a kingdom Lovers abdicate the crown Lovers fight for love and freedom Breaking the chains That hold 'em down You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on You gotta keep on You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on Loving lovers You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on You gotta keep on You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on Everyone is frantic The antics became bizarre Every lost romantic's been Banished to some cold star Never again expire Be tired and given in I'm gonna take my lover Discover tha promised land I'll say that Lovers cross the raging waters Lovers walk the burning sand Lovers stop the time in order To take their moments in their hands Lovers toss away a kingdom Lovers abdicate the crown Lovers fight for love and freedom Breaking the chains That hold 'em down You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on You gotta keep on You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on Loving lovers You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on You gotta keep on You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on Changing Lovers You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on You gotta keep on You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on Loving lovers You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on You gotta keep on You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on Didn't I say?
