[Verse 1]

When the rivers turning dark at night

Know everyone that’s been afraid has lost it

All my senses are coming I just rave

At least I’ll keep the angels watching


[Pre-Chorus]

I’m thinking about, thinking about, thinking about blue

Yeah, I’m drinking doubt, drinking doubt, drinking just you


[Chorus]

How many rivers must I cross before I get to know ya?

How many rivers must I cross before I hit the ocean?

I’m thinking about, thinking about, thinking about blue

So how many rivers must I cross before I get to know ya?


[Verse 2]

When there’s a dead end at the traffic light

Don’t ask me why I’m out of patience

No, no, I’ve been talking to your guide at night

She told me that I’m off probation


[Pre-Chorus]

I’m thinking about, thinking about, thinking about blue

Yeah, I’m drinking doubt, drinking doubt, drinking just you


[Chorus]

So how many rivers must I cross before I get to know ya?

Yeah, how many rivers must I cross before I hit the ocean?

I’m thinking about, thinking about, thinking about blue

So how many rivers must I cross before I get to know ya?


[Bridge]

I feel the wolves looking for prey

And it’s flashing from a clear sky

I see the trees turning grey, eeeh, eeeh, yo

I wasn’t given any gold teeth

No I can’t hear the grass grow beneath

But I can feel it when I’m low at least

I don’t care what they throw at me


[Chorus]

So how many rivers must I cross before I get to know ya?

Yeah, how many rivers must I cross before I hit the ocean?

I’m thinking about, thinking about, thinking about blue

So how many rivers must I cross before I get to know ya?
