It has been raining

for so long

I have been praying

for a break in the storm

but in the thunder

I hear your name

and it takes me under

underneath all this pain

and I've got to get on with my life

but I don't know how

tell me...

[chorus]

how many rivers to cross

how many crosses to bear

how many miles till I get there

without you

I have been waiting

for so long

now this woman is saying

she can't wait anymore

no sound of thunder

no threat of rain

can keep me under

underneath all this pain

and I've got to get on with my life

but I don't know how

please tell me

repeat chorus

how many rivers to cross

how many crosses to bear

how many miles till I get there

repeat and fade
