Low Stars - Tracks In the Rain lyrics

Woke up one morning to find tracks in the rain I went to follow them to find from where they came Over a hill and then underneath a bridge Down by a riverbank I stood along a ridge The voice in the meadow, accompanied by rain Such a sound to behold, singing this refrain There's a river to cross, a mountain to climb A bridge for you to build over the tide When the water is deep, the valley is low Wash away your troubles and watch that river flow I followed that sound in the things that we said Got me out of a cabin where a gun was next to bed I'd been laid low for the things I had done Then these words appeared to me on the tip of my tongue I can't stop singing them over and over again Don't remember not knowing then, when it all began It's like some ancient someone came over a hill So you might think you know something but you don't know nothing 'til There's a river to cross, a mountain to climb A bridge for you to build over the tide When the water is deep, the valley is low Wash away your troubles and watch that river flow So I'm carrying this melody with me everywhere When my burden gets heavy amidst most all my cares Through this life we're living, you got to take it day by day You never know what's coming or going along the way There's a song for every person, a cure for every pain Just keep singing, you'll find tracks in the rain There's a river to cross, a mountain to climb A bridge for you to build over the tide When the water is deep and the valley is low Wash away your troubles, let that river flow
